The honey bee can often be found quietly going about its business pollinating flowers in gardens. They are essential to the eco system as without them cross pollination would not [url=http://www.mxitcms.com/abercrombie/]abercrombie milano[/url] be able to occur. The bees defence mechanisms are a venomous barb and a pheromone, which can be released to alert other bees to protect the hive. More information is to be made available on [url=http://www.mxitcms.com/tiffany/]tiffany outlet[/url] paediatric first aid courses to educate children about the danger of bees.
The main danger to humans comes in the form of the bee's stinger. This is no snake or scorpion however, and one bee sting to the average person causes nothing more than a solitary scream, and the possibility of minor swelling.
A small percentage [url=http://www.mxitcms.com/tiffany/]tiffany[/url] of the population however suffer from anaphylaxis, which is an extreme allergic reaction that can cause the respiratory system to shut down. If someone with this condition gets [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/woolrich.php]woolrich outlet[/url] stung by a bee the result is much different, and their life can very much hang in the balance. Young children often do not yet know they suffer with anaphylaxis and therefore may not be able to receive the lifesaving treatment that is required.
Children are also more at risk from bees as they have not always learnt [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/moncler.php]moncler sito ufficiale[/url] what is safe to touch and what is not. The bee is a very quiet and unobtrusive creature, which will go out of its way to avoid confrontation. Despite this they will sting if confronted or backed into a corner in order to protect the hive. It is the ultimate sacrifice as once the bee injects its stinger into something their bodies rip away and they die.
The two main culprits that can be found in northern hemisphere summer times are the European honey bee (EHB) and the African honey bee (AHB). The EHB is the less aggressive counterpart and is [url=http://www.davidhabchy.com]barbour sale[/url] native to the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa. The AHB originated from the region of its name, and is a far more aggressive and resilient insect. When facing a threat they are capable of sending out three to four times more workers than the EHB, and will pursue an intruder for a far greater distance.
Solitary bees pose no real threat to humans, but swarms of angry bees certainly do. Bees rely on the use of pheromones, which are like [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] a hormone that is transported in the air so that other bees can detect a noticeable event. One particular pheromone is associated with danger and if a threat is detected the whole hive can be alerted. This ultimately means that huge swarms of worker bees will leave the hive in order to sting the invader and protect the queen. Within the first 30 seconds the EHB can deliver up to 10 stings whereas the AHB can sting between 400 and 500 times in the same [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister outlet sale[/url] interval. The average adult can only sustain around 1000 stings before dying [url=http://www.mansmanifesto.fr]doudoune moncler homme[/url] and for a child the numbers are much lower. The maths are quite simple unless you can escape the bees within minutes the possibility of death is high.
If you disturb a hive and the bees begin to attack your only chance is to run. [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/peuterey.php]peuterey[/url] Hopefully it will be an [url=http://www.maximoupgrade.com/hot.php]hollister france[/url] EHB hive who will not give chase for great distances, however the AHB have been reported to give chance for up to half a mile from the hive. It doesn't matter what type of bee it is however as the only objective is to run far and fast in a direction away from the hive.
Once you are safe and the bees have disappeared it is essential to seek urgent medical care. Inform the emergency's services of what has happened and await an ambulance. If this is not possible someone will need to [url=http://www.1855sacramento.com/woolrich.php]woolrich bologna[/url] drive you to a hospital as quickly as possible. So remember run hard and fast this summer if you are unlucky enough to upset the usually quiet and reserved honey bee.
