chattius 2,527 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 motes -> fungus gnat I hate when I paint the house just to find a collection of motes and gnats on the fresh paint. Finding out which insects and 'dust' needs more experts than CSI and Bones have together. We had some biology students in a camp in our forest and one girl was researching the insects on the paint of the storage for the diesel power unit: mainly fungus gnats. 1 Link to comment

They usually wait until they are all over your leg and sting like the devil in unison. Some unfortunate folks are so allergic they can go into anaphylaxis and need to be expedited to the hospital. An injection of epinephrine usually does the trick to save their lives. When in Texas, you watch where you're steppin' outside. 1 Link to comment

Chaos/Kali -> Eichenprozessionsspinner (oak processionary) What I fear most at our place are oak processionaries. When there are too many you can't even enter a forest without full body protection and air filtering. Even when they left their caterpillar stage - the bristles of the worn off caterpillar hides are still dangerous. the fine hairs cover everything and any movements makes them airborn. I had them luckily only once on a single tree and I made a ring of sheep wool around the trunk where they got trapped and then burned. Another possibility is a crane attachment for the Unimog with a big movable vaccuum cleaner. I saw them in action 50 kilometres away 6 years back, just in case. Link to comment

chattius 2,527 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 trap door spider -> Ringelfüssige Röhrenspinne We don't have trap door spiders in central Europe. Closest would be the above, translated as: 'striped-legged tunnel spider'. They dig a pipe/tunnel and have the net just above the ground to catch running insects. The spider mother is eaten by its own breed to give them a kickstart. The english nick name seems to be 'ladybird spider'. Link to comment
