Presentation for parents “Insects are carriers of dangerous infections: be careful! Anopheles mosquito

“Ecological groups of plants” - Ecological groups of plants. Light-loving plants are found in open habitats or well-lit places. Hygrophytes. Another important environmental factor in plant life is water. Shade-tolerant plants have a fairly wide ecological amplitude in relation to light. Rock garden.

“Indicator plants” - A small orchid - Lady's slipper, grows only in soils rich in calcium. Under the influence of radioactive radiation, blue blueberries turn white and green. Bentgrass thin Poppy. The goal of the work is to become familiar with plants that help find a variety of minerals. Let's rock Minuartia. The ability of leguminous plants - astragalus, sweet clover, clover - to accumulate a lot of molybdenum.

“Poisonous mushrooms and plants” - An eaten piece of toadstool is stronger than a snake bite. Poisonous mushrooms. A herbaceous plant with an unpleasant odor. Do not pick mushrooms in industrial wastelands and garbage dumps, as well as along highways. Edible honey mushrooms have a brownish-yellow cap and a ring-like film on the stem. Don’t taste a raw mushroom and don’t trust the smell—you might make a mistake.

“Protected plants” - Mosses. Noble liverwort. Siberian iris. Lady's slipper. Lyubka green-flowered. Bells. Protected plants of the Vladimir region. The shot is open. Orchis capillaria. The water lily is pure white.

“Poisoning from poisonous plants” - Remove plant debris from your mouth. Belladonna belladonna. Many plant poisons in small doses are valuable medicinal agents. Blood will appear in the urine. What to do if you ate a poisonous plant step 1. In severe cases, the rhythm and heart rate are disrupted. May lily of the valley.

“Rare and endangered plants” - Found in the Nizhneudinsky region. The daughter tubers, the roots, are harvested. Bulbs – for toothache. It blooms under favorable conditions for 6-8 years, less - for 15-17 years of life. The plant is endemic, rare, listed in the Red Book of the Irkutsk region. The juice of the above-ground organs is prescribed for skin diseases.

Housefly. The housefly belongs to the order Diptera. An adult fly eats the same food as a human. Every 2-4 days, a female housefly lays 150 eggs. After 13 days, the egg hatches into a larva. Fly larvae develop in various kinds of rotting waste. Fly larvae are white, headless and legless. After 10 days, the larva turns into a pupa. After 3 days, an adult fly emerges from the pupa. On itself and in itself (in the intestines) the fly carries up to 30 million bacteria, including the causative agents of dysentery and typhoid fever.

Medical worker: Typhoid fever is an infectious disease caused by the typhoid bacillus.

Symptoms: increased body temperature, weakness, malaise, headache, enlarged liver and spleen, sometimes lethargy, hallucinations, delirium, loss of consciousness. There may be complications - intestinal bleeding, intestinal perforation. In order not to become infected with this disease, it is necessary to fight flies: use nets on windows and vents, kill flies, and use repellents. Repellents are means that repel insects.

Invite students to examine the microslide “Mosquito Oral Apparatus.” Questions for the class after studying the structure of the proboscis under a microscope: “What does the proboscis of a mosquito remind you of? Why is this organ called piercing-sucking?” Explain that the mosquito’s proboscis is an adaptation to blood sucking.

Horseflies. Horseflies are representatives of the order Diptera. Body length – 2 cm. Horse flies have bright green eyes. Female horseflies painfully bite warm-blooded animals: cows, horses, moose, deer, birds, humans. Males feed on flower nectar. Females need blood for egg development. Horsefly bites are a nuisance to agricultural insects, and their bites can reduce milk yield in cows.

The tsetse fly carries sleeping sickness, which causes blindness. A huge number of people in Africa are going blind from this disease and it is almost impossible to stop this process. Stopping such mass diseases will require hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars, which Africa, as an underdeveloped state, cannot afford to spend on purchasing medicines and protective equipment.

Lice are carriers of typhus and relapsing fever, and fleas are carriers of plague. Adult fleas feed exclusively on blood, sucking up to 20 times their own weight in blood every day. Flea bites are painful, causing severe itching and inflammation of the skin.

The most dangerous insects that carry pathogens live and breed in regions with high average temperatures: tropical and subtropical climates. Due to the onset of global warming, these regions are moving north, insects are beginning to capture new territories, adapt and reproduce in new areas. Also, due to warming, mosquitoes begin to multiply exponentially, as water bodies dry up under the influence of high temperatures and turn into puddles or swamps, the most comfortable places for mosquitoes to live, which are carriers of diseases dangerous to humans.

Insects that transmit human diseases are extremely dangerous. In order to avoid contracting diseases from insects and prevent long-term treatment and recovery, all possible measures should be taken to combat parasites and blood-sucking insects: flies, mosquitoes, fleas, horseflies, mosquitoes and other disease carriers. There are many methods to combat parasites: keeping the areas of cities and towns clean, maintaining hygiene measures in homes and public buildings, keeping pets clean, etc.

Slide captions:

AUTUMN FLY (Stomoxys calcitrans) In terms of annoyingness and intrusiveness, the flies are not inferior to the houseflies. Fortunately, livestock prefer livestock to humans. This fly, equipped with a piercing proboscis, is a bloodsucker and causes harm as a carrier of anthrax, tularemia and other diseases. At one time, the fly drinks an amount of blood that exceeds its body weight by 1.5-2 times.

HOUSE FLY (Muscina stabulans) Adult flies are numerous in latrines and livestock buildings, especially if human feces are present. Less commonly, the house fly is found in residential buildings. Although it mainly feeds on feces, it also willingly sits on human food, infecting it with pathogenic microbes. They begin their life as consumers of decaying plant matter, but then, having grown stronger, they begin to feed on the larvae of other dipterans, i.e. they become predators.

Houseflies are dangerous spreaders of infections. Each of them, having been exposed to feces and various kinds of waste, carries about 6 million microorganisms on the surface of its body and at least 25-28 million in the intestines. But it must be said that the pathogenic bacteria in the intestines of the fly are not digested and are excreted quite viable. Typhoid and paratyphoid bacilli, dysentery bacillus, Vibrio cholera, tuberculosis bacillus, anthrax spores, the causative agent of diphtheria, and worm eggs were found on the flies. It is not found in the wild, outside towns and cities. Manure, feces, various garbage - these are the wastes where the larvae of the housefly, a constant companion of human settlements, develop. The reproduction rate of this species is amazing. HOUSE FLY (Musca domestica)

Housefly larvae, like other higher flies, do not have a head. They liquefy food by releasing digestive juices onto it; this method of digestion is called extraintestinal. In one liter of horse or cow manure or in the same amount of kitchen waste, from 1000 to 1500 fly larvae can simultaneously develop, and in pig manure - up to 4000 Features of housefly development

If for the first time a female drinks the blood of a person with malaria, she becomes dangerous, since her saliva is now teeming with sporozoites - the initial stage of the development of malarial plasmodium. Having re-fed the blood, the female again loses interest in food until the next batch of eggs matures and is laid. MALARIA MOSQUITO (Anopheles maculipennis)

Distinctive characteristics of larvae and adults of malarial and non-malarial mosquitoes.

HUMAN LICE (Pediculus humanus) Most often, lice infection occurs through close contact, when people are crowded together and find themselves in severe, unsanitary conditions that make it impossible to change clothes, wash them, or wash them. The human louse, especially its body louse, transmits pathogens of such dangerous diseases as typhus, relapsing fever and a number of others. Of particular danger is typhus, a disease caused by microorganisms that settle inside cells - rickettsia.

R is widespread in Europe, North Africa and Asia. Females of this species lay eggs on the hair of animals, mainly on the legs. Cattle are mainly affected. After 4-6 days, the larvae emerge from the eggs and, having penetrated under the skin, begin complex migrations in the animal’s body. Then they emerge to the place of their final development, which takes place under the skin. Adult gadflies do not feed. They live off the nutrients accumulated in the larval phase, so their life is short. BULL GADDY (Hypoderma bovis)

These are large blood-sucking dipterans. A female horsefly is capable of taking up to 200 mg of blood in one blood suck, i.e., as much as 70 mosquitoes or 4,000 midges drink. Their harmfulness is further aggravated by the fact that when horseflies suck blood, they carry pathogens of anthrax, tularemia, polio and other serious diseases, and also transmit some diseases caused by nematodes. Family Horseflies (Tabanidae)

Housefly

A person can become infected from a seemingly harmless housefly. In fact, flies are very dangerous; they are carriers of cholera, typhoid fever, and dysentery.

Slide 4

Cockroaches

Cockroaches, like flies, feed on waste and carry bacteria and microorganisms on their legs, resulting in infection of humans, most often children. Cockroaches can also cause severe allergies in children.

Slide 5

Malaria mosquito

One of the most dangerous types of insects is considered to be mosquitoes, which transmit infection by biting and sucking blood. These insects are carriers of human pathogens: malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever, which kill thousands of people every year.

Slide 6

Tsetse fly

The tsetse fly carries sleeping sickness, which causes blindness. A huge number of people in Africa are going blind from this disease and it is almost impossible to stop this process. Stopping such mass diseases will require hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars, which Africa, as an underdeveloped state, cannot afford to spend on purchasing medicines and protective equipment.

Blood-sucking insects: fleas and lice

Lice are carriers of typhus and relapsing fever, and fleas are carriers of plague.

Adult fleas feed exclusively on blood, sucking up to 20 times their own weight in blood every day.

Flea bites are painful, causing severe itching and inflammation of the skin.
