Are you entomophile? some poisonous insects list
Not all the insects on our planet earth are friendly, and some are poisonous or harmful to humans, be careful of these insects, or it is better not to meet.
An entomophile simply means—a person who likes insects, mind you! Some insects are unfriendly and can attack anything the slightest chance they have or when you encroach their territory. Below is the list of harmful insects.
Centipedes
They can be significant in size, with a large number of legs, a frightening look. They move quickly and chaotically. The appearance of such an insect can bring harm to humans. It is somewhat disgusting for most people, which is negatively reflected in their psyche.
Water bugs
The mere memory of these tiny creatures is already unpleasant. They have an unbearable smell, and they feed on human blood. But there are also giant water bugs fifteen centimeters long. When meeting people, water bugs immediately pretend to be dead. But if they get angry, they can bite.
Lonomia
This caterpillar is very dangerous. It is also called the “lazy clown.” Tourists like it because of its attractive appearance. But appearances are deceiving!
Africanized honey bee
These are the most aggressive bees in the world. Experts advise not to get very close to their hives. They, sensing danger, will pursue and sting anyone.
Karakurt spider
The spider lives in the steppe. It belongs to the genus of “black widows.” The poison has solid and fast action, 15 times stronger than the venom of a rattlesnake. So please do not neglect the safety measures, do not approach the spider, and in no case touch it. The bite of such a representative is fatal to humans.
Subcutaneous gadflies

Red fire ant
This representative of the insect class feels great in favorable climatic conditions. Red ants settle wherever they want, most often near farms and houses. They use “everything that lies badly” for food, from beetles and small insects to electricity wires.
Mites
Ticks are a well-known insect in all regions of the world. It is not particularly dangerous for humans because of its small size; a tick on the body is difficult to determine with the human eye quickly. The tick’s favorite place is tree branches, from which it is convenient for it to attack the victim and grab onto it with small teeth.
