Some kind of butterfly, like a moth, started up. It doesn't look like a fur coat shop. Tell me what kind of animal and how to deal with it?

Southern barn firefly Plodia interpunctella

28.01.2008 12:16, Балрон

Thank you for your help! I wonder where this beast came from, and how to defeat it?

28.01.2008 15:28, Bad Den

Look in cereals, dried fruits - most likely somewhere in them develops.
The simplest thing to do is to throw away contaminated food.

Thank you very much!!!
Found it in walnuts!!! A friend from Stavropol brought it... beer.gif

Animals mol.gifsimilar to ants (8 legs, 2-4mm in length, rather slow) appeared in all rooms at once. Occupy banks and grocery bags, were seen at work and at school. Please help me identify the beast and how to deal with it. How dangerous is it?

This is the ant of the so-called pharaohs-Monomorium pharaonum.
Smear the corners with Masha's chalk.
You can also use the tracks to track where the nest is and destroy it.

03.02.2008 22:20, stv

Thank you very much!
It's really him.

04.02.2008 11:31, Victor Titov

Monomorium pharaonum is not easy to deal with. I once had to, God forbid, do it again! As a rule, if the house is multi-apartment, then you need to harass them "with the whole world", otherwise they will appear again and again - there may be nests in more than one apartment.

Actually, Pharaoh ants are perfectly destroyed by gels from cockroaches, which are applied to their paths. Mass death begins in a day or two (if the gel is not a fake left), after a week the ants disappear completely. To prevent their appearance from neighbors, you can circle the gel around the ventilation grilles.

Well, I fought with them when such gels were not on sale at all (early-mid-80s of the last century) ...

04.02.2008 13:20, Alexandr Rusinov

Modern gels are a powerful thing, soon red cockroaches will have to be entered in the regional Red Books wink.gif

Friends,

Someone bit me in the middle (right in the very flesh, you bastard!!) shoulder area. The tracks were unusual, unlike a mosquito - about 10 small dots planted close to each other. Total area of damage with a radius of about 3-4 cm. At first, these dots were white as after a nettle burn, terribly itched, and then they became bright, bright red. And now it burns terribly frown.gif( I constantly feel a burning sensation under my clothes, it's untidy to the point of horror. That's why I want to catch this bastard.

I will say in advance that my house is clean; no bedbugs and cockroaches were noticed; I was not in exotic countries; I did not enter into close contact with people who were there; I also did not suffer from allergies... that's just a bird at home and there is a plant.

So if you suddenly know what kind of midge bit me, I will be very grateful to you!!!!

It can be assumed that this is lichen. smile.gif

An old joke: "Doctor, I itch all the time. What to do? Haven't you tried washing? I tried, but a month later I'm scratching again" ...

Forgot to say that the" fourth pair of legs " is the antennae smile.gif

06.02.2008 12:56, Guest

Thanks for the joke smile.gif
but it's definitely not ringworm. We had shingles when we were kids. We know. This is not the case...

06.02.2008 14:37, Victor Titov

Lichens are different umnik.gif! But seriously, according to the description, it looks more like some kind of skin disease, but not like an insect bite-a spider tick. If it doesn't go away, see a dermatologist. Do you remember the moment of the bite? Or did they discover only the consequences?

06.02.2008 16:12, guest: Ольга

I discovered exactly the consequences. I don't remember the moment of the bite. I think it happened last night.
I think it's a bite because it's right on the vein. And swollen somehow oddly frown.gif

06.02.2008 16:27, omar

IMHO the reason is not in the bite. There's nothing to do here. Insects have enough capillary blood - they're not ghouls... smile.gif I'm telling you this as a farrier. cool.gif

If this is something to do with insects, then it's definitely not a bloodsucker-there were several spots, and bloodsuckers usually have only one puncture. Theoretically, this may be a consequence of the sting of some small membrane (now sometimes such exotic things get into apartments...), which you accidentally pinned down at night.

Are these spots on the skin arranged in a group or "track"? If it is a path, then it may be a scootiger centipede (flycatcher) that ran over you at night. This reaction to millipedes is sometimes observed, especially in areas with delicate skin. In general, this is an individual sensitivity.

13.02.2008 14:32, Трофим

In general, sometimes it happens that one puncture is not enough for bloodsuckers, until you come across a capillary and a successful well.But 10 points in one place confused.gif. But it is better to go to a dermatologist rather than something skin-related.

Robya, this sub-forum is designed to discuss BREEDING and KEEPING invertebrates in captivity and share experience on this issue... What does parasites have to do with it? Mlin, chesslovo-got fleas and mosquitoes!.......Do you keep and breed them? And share your experience on this topic? No? Then maybe the address was wrong?

13.02.2008 20:31, taler

I don't know-everything seems to be on the topic.Both insects in the house and the bite are discussed.
I also tend to think that this is a reaction to the bite.It doesn't look like a particularly starving insect.Some kind of flea.All other spots are reactions.

KEEPING and BREEDING ... Umgu?

In general, you are right, this topic does not correspond to either breeding or content, but it does not correspond to other subforums even more. Therefore, I leave this and similar topics in this subforum, after all, "Insects in the house".

Strange beetles roam in the rooms - dark brown in color, 3-4 mm in length.
It's not a common occurrence, but you can't imagine how my girlfriend screams smile.gif
Tell me who it is, what it wants, and how to get rid of it.

Trogoderma sp.
He wants the same thing as everyone else - to eat.
Treat residential hairpins with household insecticides, should help

19.02.2008 10:09, Bad Den

Attagenus ?smirnovi, I think

19.02.2008 10:37, Guest

Bad Den:
Attagenus smirnovi is not particularly similar http://www.dermestidae.com/Attagenussmirnovim.jpg

KDG:
> Trogoderma sp
how do I decipher "sp"?

Maybe there is some general characteristic of such beetles? What do they eat and what do they get started from? I would like to study it in detail.

19.02.2008 12:17, Victor Titov

Both Attagenus and Trogoderma are skin - eating beetles of the Dermestidae family. http://www.zin.ru/ANIMALIA/COLEOPTERA/rus/atl_derm.htm
Read the general information here http://www.diclib.com/cgi-bin/d1.cgi?l=ru&...showid&id=32933 However, Google it yourself.
sp . is short for Latin species. When this word comes after the Latin generic name of an animal (plant), it means, if simplified, that the object (in this case, a beetle) is defined before the genus, but the specific name is not specified. To determine the size of the view, you need to take a closer look at it-turn it around. And preferably under binoculars smile.gifIn the photo, I, like Bad Den, tend to Attagenus smirnovi.

The photo clearly shows Attagenus smirnovi, female, depressed wink.gifstate . And to get rid of them better, vacuum the cracks in the floor and at the baseboards, their larvae mostly live there. It is necessary to have a conversation with the girl about the fact that these beetles are not capable of harming her smile.gif
PS I looked at the photo of A. smirnovi, on the link, there this species does not look like itself, but the pronotum and elytra should differ quite sharply in color.

In this (link) photo, the male, and I met boys with almost monochrome elytra and pronotum. But the girls - those, as a rule, are sharply two-tone.

Yes, they have males, as a rule, also bicolored, such a unicolored color is still rather an exception.

Duc, I say-met...Not like everyone, but there are almost monochrome ones.

uuuuuuu.... The situation is serious.... It looks like a Psychoperta sericcolis bite.. Dangerous stuff. It is not an entomologist who is needed here, but, as they correctly say, a dermatologist.. Because irritation from an external virus, not insect venom.

Whose bite??

Good time of the day.
I've got all sorts of beetles in my house. I searched the entire Internet - I didn't find anything similar.
It is gray, matte, slightly terry, diamond-shaped, elongated nose, small antennae with balls at the ends. dimensions-about 3-4 mm in length, 2 in width. Do not bite
Mostly observe them in the area of the sofa and nightstand. This furniture is old and has been in the house for a long time, but it wasn't a bug before. And it is also noteworthy that they appeared about a month ago-in the winter.
Atkivnosti do not show, move very slowly, mostly sit in one place. I once saw that they can fly. When I push them down, they don't even try to run away, the most they can do is fall down and pretend to be dead.
Now it is sunny outside, so they began to show unprecedented activity-they climb on the window.
It turned out to be a whole ode about a beetle smile.gif
Attach a photo.
Thank you in advance
