Insects are the opposite of fun, aren’t they? While in most parts of the world they’re just a nuisance that you have to learn to deal with, there are places where insects have evolved to the point where they’re natural-born killers.
Let’s take a look at some of the deadliest insects you can find. Well, or avoid. I’d avoid them.
Mosquitoes
They pretty much have these everywhere, but the main source of being so dangerous is that they’re freakishly good at passing on diseases between human hosts. Malaria might be the most known and dangerous disease they spread, but I can assure you the list is a lot longer.
Fire Ants
Where other ants hurt you by just having a nasty bite, fire ants will swarm you. They’re very protective and if you step on them accidentally, the entire colony will defend itself against you – without mercy.
Bot Flies
Yes, these are the flies that implant larvae underneath your skin, waiting for them to burst out once they’re grown. While not necessarily lethal, it sure is mentally scarring.
Driver Ants
These ants are constantly on the move in huge numbers and will devour anything on their path. Their swarm is so massive that local communities actually temporarily move when a driver ant colony is approaching.
