Nahu ʻulaʻula a me ka ʻeleʻele maʻamau nā ʻōpena. Akā ʻaʻole i ʻike ʻia ka nui o ka formic acid i hoʻokuʻu ʻia e nā ʻeleʻele. Akā, hāʻawi nā ʻanuʻula ʻulaʻula i ka nui o ka waika formic i kā lākou nahu ʻana a no laila hāʻawi hou i ka ʻeha, ka pehu, a me ka ʻulaʻula.
No ke aha e nahu ai nā ʻeleʻele ʻulaʻula?
Hoʻopili kēia mau mea kino i ka waika formic. Loaʻa iā lākou ka pōmaikaʻi e hiki ai iā lākou ke pale aku iā lākou iho ma kahi mamao. Ke komo ka ʻakika i nā ʻeha, ʻaʻole ʻoluʻolu.
He aha ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā ʻeleʻele ʻulaʻula?
Haʻalele nā ʻanuʻu ʻulaʻula i nā kānaka. ʻO ka ʻokoʻa, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka manaʻo ʻeleʻele o ka māla ʻeleʻele (Lasius niger) e pili ana i ke kūkulu ʻana i ko lākou mau pūnana ma lalo o ke kahua papahele a i ʻole nā ala māla a hoʻohuli iā lākou i mau pōʻino pōʻino.
Hiki ke nahu mai ka ʻulaʻula?
ʻO ka ant lāʻau ʻulaʻula kaulana loa, ma kekahi ʻaoʻao, nahu. He mau waha ikaika ko ka mea ʻoki lau e nahu ikaika ai. ʻO nā mea ʻelua - ʻo ka stinging a me ka nahu - he ʻoluʻolu loa.
Hiki i nā ʻeleʻele ke nahu?
Nahu wale ka ʻeleʻele maʻamau i loaʻa iā ʻoe ma nā wahi āpau. Hiki i ka nahu ke ʻulaʻula a ʻili iki, akā e ola koke. Inā ʻike ʻoe i nā ʻanuʻu lāʻau ʻulaʻula, ʻoi aku ka ʻeha o ka nahu. Hoʻokomo kēia mau pepeke i kahi mea make i kapa ʻia ʻo ant venom ma luna o ka wahi nahu.
ʻO wai ka mea nahu e hiki ke nahu?
Hiki i nā ʻanuʻu ke nahu me ko lākou mau āwae (mandibles). ʻO nā lālā wale nō o ka ʻohana unahi ʻohana – e like me nā ʻanuʻu lāʻau, nā ʻanuʻu alanui, nā ʻanuʻu kamanā – e hoʻokuʻu i kahi huna ʻona i ka mea hoʻouka, ma kahi mamao a i ʻole ma kahi o ka nahu.
Pehea ka pōʻino o nā mea ʻulaʻula?
Nahu lāʻau ʻulaʻula nahu. ʻUu ʻuala liʻiliʻi māla ʻulaʻula. He ʻeha ka nahu a me ka ʻū ʻana akā ʻaʻole pilikia.

No ke aha e ʻeha ai ka nahu?
Akā ʻaʻole ʻo ia wale nō, no ka mea, nahu mua ka ʻānemu lāʻau ʻulaʻula a hoʻokomo i ka waika formic i loko o ka ʻeha me kona ʻōpū. A e puhi ana i ka ʻeha. Hiki iā ʻoe ke holoi i ka waika formic me ka wai maʻemaʻe.
He aha ka hopena inā e nahu ʻia ʻoe e ka ʻānemu ʻulaʻula?
ʻO ka nahu ʻana o ka ant ahi e hoʻoulu koke i ka ʻeha a me ka pehu ʻulaʻula a nalowale i loko o 45 mau minuke. A laila, puka mai kahi ʻōhū, a haki ʻia i loko o 2 a 3 mau lā, e hopena pinepine ai i ka maʻi.

Eia nō naʻe, hiki ke hoʻomohala ʻia nā wahi sting i pustules (puʻu-filled blisters) hiki ke lōʻihi no ʻelua pule. ʻO ka mea ʻawaʻawa ant ke kumu i ka make ʻana o nā cell localized, a ʻo nā pustules ka hopena o kā mākou ʻōnaehana pale e hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ka ʻōpala cell.
He aha ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā ʻeleʻele ʻulaʻula?
He aha ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele a me ka ʻulaʻula? ʻO ka ʻokoʻa nui ma waena o nā ʻeleʻele ʻulaʻula a me nā ʻeleʻele ko lākou kala. ʻO ka ʻanoanu ʻulaʻula wale nō kekahi o nā ʻano ʻano nui, ʻoiai he 24 mau ʻano ʻano ʻeleʻele. ʻO ka ʻānemu ʻulaʻula ke ʻano ʻino i ka mea pio, hoʻokuʻu i kahi ʻawaʻawa e ʻeha loa ke nahu lākou.
He aha ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā ʻanuʻu ahi a me nā ʻanuʻu ʻulaʻula?
