What kind of poison are tiger bees and centipedes?

Tiger bees are more poisonous than centipedes.

Tiger-headed bees, also known as wasps, are a genus of Vespidae in Hymenoptera, and are called "tiger-headed bees" because of their tiger stripes. Tiger bees are usually yellow-black, with well-developed jaws, and stinging needles at the end of the abdomen are connected with poisonous glands. Bee venom is a kind of toxic protein composed of various amino acids. In autumn, in order to prepare food for hibernation, they often go out on a large scale in autumn.

The name "Tiger Head Bee" is just an ordinary folk name, not a formal scientific name. Hornets belonging to insects are called "tiger-headed bees" because their heads are as big as tigers, their temperament is as fierce as tigers, and they have tiger stripes on their bodies. It is also called "coop bee" because its nest is as big as a coop.

Growth and distribution of tiger bees

The habitat of the tiger-headed bee is not on the high mountain, but in the mountainous area below 1500 meters from the flat land. Some nest on branches, while others nest in caves. There are thousands of tiger bees in the small nest and tens of thousands of bees in the big nest.

Every year, they start to lay eggs in April and May, form bees in June and July, and go out for food after 10. When food is scarce, there will also be bullying among the same kind. After the winter cold current passes, the tiger bees will all disappear.
