Introduction: Understanding Yellow Jackets
ʻO nā ʻaʻahu melemele, ʻike ʻia i ka ʻepekema ʻo Vespula spp. a me Dolichovespula spp., he ʻano nalo no ka ʻohana Vespidae. Loaʻa iā lākou ko lākou inoa mai ko lākou kino ʻeleʻele a melemele, a ua ʻike ʻia no kā lākou hana ʻino, ʻoi aku hoʻi i ka wā e hoʻopilikia ʻia ai ko lākou pūnana. Noho ʻia kēia mau pepeke pili i nā kolone, a loaʻa mau ma ʻAmelika ʻĀkau a me ʻEulopa.
Noho ʻana: Ma hea kahi e noho ai nā kāleka melemele?
Hiki ke hoʻololi maikaʻi ʻia nā ʻaʻahu melemele a hiki ke ulu i nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole, e like me nā ululāʻau, nā kula, nā wahi kūloko, a me nā kaiapuni kūlanakauhale. Makemake lākou e kūkulu i ko lākou pūnana ma nā wahi i mālama ʻia, e like me nā lua lalo, nā lua lāʻau, a i ʻole i loko a puni nā hale. Pili ʻia nā ʻaʻahu melemele i nā ʻala ʻono, a kūkulu paha i ko lākou mau pūnana ma kahi kokoke i nā kumu meaʻai, e like me nā kumulāʻau hua a i ʻole nā ʻōpala.
Mahele Geographic o na Lole Melemele
Loaʻa nā pālule melemele ma nā wahi he nui o ka honua, me ʻAmelika ʻĀkau, ʻEulopa, ʻApelika, Asia, a me Australia. Ma ʻAmelika ʻĀkau, ʻike pinepine ʻia lākou ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa a me Kanada, me ka ʻaʻahu melemele komohana ka mea laha loa. Ma ʻEulopa, ʻike ʻia ka ʻaʻahu melemele maʻamau a puni ka ʻāina, me ka ʻaʻahu melemele Kelemania ka mea maʻamau i Germany.
ʻO nā maʻamau o nā ʻeke melemele
ʻO nāʻaʻahu melemele nā'ōpala kaiaulu e noho ana i loko o nā kolo, me kēlā me kēia kolone he mō'īwahine, limahana, a me nā drones. ʻO ke aliʻi wahine ke kuleana no ka hoʻomoe ʻana i nā hua, a ʻo ka poʻe limahana ke kuleana o ke kūkulu ʻana a mālama i ka pūnana, a me ka ʻai ʻana i ka meaʻai. ʻO nā drones nā kāne e pili ana me ke aliʻi wahine.
Nā Pūnana Jacket Melemele: Hoʻolālā a me ke ʻano
Hana ʻia nā pūnana ʻaʻahu melemele i mea like me ka pepa i hana ʻia e ka poʻe paʻahana e nau ana i nā wili lāʻau a hui pū me ka kohu. He spherical a oval paha ke ano o ka punana, a hiki ke like me ka nui mai ka poepoe kolepa a i ka basketball. ʻO ka ʻaoʻao o waho o ka pūnana i hana ʻia me kahi mea pepa, aʻo ka ʻaoʻao o loko e hoʻopaʻa ʻia me nā cell hexagonal kahi e hānai ʻia ai nā ʻōpio.
Nā Paena Nesting maʻamau no nā Kāleka Melemele
Hiki i nā ʻaʻahu melemele ke kūkulu i ko lākou pūnana ma nā wahi like ʻole, e like me nā lua lalo, nā lua lāʻau, a me nā hale a puni. Hiki iā lākou ke kūkulu i ko lākou pūnana ma nā wahi maʻamau, e like me nā paia o nā hale a i nā kaʻa i haʻalele ʻia. Hoʻokomo ʻia nā ʻaʻahu melemele i nā wahi ʻeleʻele, pale ʻia, a hiki ke kūkulu i ko lākou pūnana ma nā wahi ʻaʻole hiki ke hoʻopilikia ʻia.
Pehea e ʻike ai i kahi pūnana ʻaʻahu melemele
Loaʻa pinepine ʻia nā pūnana ʻaʻahu melemele ma nā wahi i pale ʻia, e like me ma lalo o nā eaves, ma nā attics a i ʻole nā wahi kolo, a i ʻole ma ka lepo. Inā manaʻo ʻoe aia kahi pūnana ʻaʻahu melemele ma kāu waiwai, e ʻimi i nā hōʻailona o ka hana, e like me ka nui o nā nalo e lele ana i loko a i waho o kekahi wahi. Hiki paha iā ʻoe ke ʻike i nā limahana ʻaʻahu melemele e hōʻiliʻili ana i ka meaʻai, e like me nā iniseti a i ʻole nā wai ʻono, a hoʻihoʻi i ka pūnana.
Ka Po'e Ola o na Lole Melemele
Hele nā ʻaʻahu melemele i ka metamorphosis piha, ʻo ia hoʻi he ʻehā mau pae o ka ulu ʻana: hua manu, larva, pupa, a me ke kanaka makua. Hoʻohua ka mōʻīwahine i nā hua, kahi e paʻa ai i loko o nā larva. Hānai ʻia nā ʻōhua e ka poʻe paʻahana a ulu aʻe a lilo i pupae, a puka aʻela ma ke ʻano he nalo makua. Hoʻokahi mahina e hoʻopau ai ke kaʻina ola holoʻokoʻa.
ʻO ke ʻano o ka ʻaʻahu melemele a me ke ʻano o ka nohona
ʻO nā ʻaʻahu melemele he mau ʻiniko kaiapuni a noho i loko o nā kolone, me kēlā me kēia kolone he mōʻīwahine, limahana, a me nā drones. ʻO ke aliʻi wahine ke kuleana no ka hoʻomoe ʻana i nā hua, a ʻo ka poʻe limahana ke kuleana o ke kūkulu ʻana a mālama i ka pūnana, a me ka ʻai ʻana i ka meaʻai. ʻO nā drones nā kāne e pili ana me ke aliʻi wahine.
ʻAi ʻAi ʻAi ʻAi Melemele a me nā Hana Hanai
ʻO nā ʻaʻahu melemele nā mea ʻaihue a ʻai i nā ʻano pepeke like ʻole, e like me nā nalo, nā enuhe, a me nā nalo ʻē aʻe. Hiki nō hoʻi lākou i nā ʻala ʻono a ʻai paha i ka nectar, nā hua, a i ʻole nā wai kō. Hiki i nā ʻaʻahu melemele ke hoʻopaʻapaʻa i ka wā e hānai ai lākou, ʻoi aku hoʻi inā hoʻopilikia ʻia kā lākou kumu meaʻai.
ʻO nā pōʻino o nā kāleʻa melemele: nā maʻi a me nā maʻi allergies
Hiki i nā ʻaʻahu melemele ke pōʻino i ke kanaka, ʻoiai inā manaʻo lākou i ka hoʻoweliweli a i ʻole ko lākou pūnana. Ua ʻike ʻia lākou no kā lākou ʻano hoʻopaʻapaʻa a hiki ke hoʻopā i nā manawa he nui. Hiki i nā ʻaʻahu melemele ke hōʻeha i ka ʻeha, ka pehu, a me ka ʻulaʻula, a hiki ke pilikia i ka poʻe maʻi i kā lākou mea ʻawaʻawa.
Kāohi ʻaʻahu melemele a me nā ana hoʻomalu
I mea e pale aku ai i ka ma'i 'a'ahu melemele, he mea nui e mālama i ka ma'ema'e o kou waiwai a me ka 'ole o nā kumu mea'ai. Aia kēia me ka mālama pono ʻana i ka ʻōpala, ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i nā ʻōpala, a me ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā wahi komo i kou home. Inā loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi pūnana ʻaʻahu melemele ma kāu waiwai, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻopili ʻana i kahi ʻoihana mālama pest control e wehe pono iā ia. Mai ho'āʻo e wehe i ka pūnana iā ʻoe iho, no ka mea hiki ke pilikia kēia a hiki ke hopena i nā maʻi he nui.
