The convenience of online shopping is hard to beat. But it uses a lot of energy and resources and can lead to more waste.
The encroachment of human development into natural areas has caused insects like wasps and hornets to nest nearer to human habitation , increasing the chances of potentially deadly encounters. — Filepic
Forests, meadows and other natural landscapes where these insects typically reside are being cleared for agriculture, urbanisation and infrastructure development. These cases highlight the indiscriminate nature of these insects, whose venom can pose significant threats to human life, regardless of age.
Even a single sting, particularly in individuals already previously sensitised to the venom, can provoke such reactions. Encouraging people to take precautions, such as avoiding disturbing nests and seeking medical attention if stung, can help reduce the risk of serious outcomes from wasp encounters. Scrape them out with a blunt object such as a fingernail or plastic card .If you experience symptoms of a severe allergic reaction, such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, dizziness, or nausea, seek medical help immediately.
