近日，廣東深圳的劉先生一覺醒來，發現枕巾長了“多肉”，捏爆后才知道是蟲卵。

劉先生說，“問了AI，它跟我說這個應該是佛珠吊蘭。我捏了捏發現不對勁啊！這是臭屁蟲的蟲卵，我就直接把枕巾扔掉了。”

A man in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, woke up recently to find what appeared to be tiny succulent buds scattered across his pillowcase — only to discover they were insect eggs after squeezing one.

此前，就有不少網友表示“綠色小顆粒”又來了！到底是什么東西如此嚇人？

有腐蝕性

小心這些綠色蟲卵！

其實，這些小顆粒是荔蝽（臭屁蟲）的蟲卵，這種蟲子主要分布在福建、江西、廣東一帶。成蟲產卵期從3月中旬持續至10月上旬，其中4、5月為產卵盛期。每只雌蟲一生一般產卵5—10次，每次產卵14粒。

The eggs were identified as belonging to the lychee giant stink bug, a species commonly found in Fujian, Jiangxi, and Guangdong. Adult females lay eggs from mid-March to early October, with peak activity in April and May. Each female typically lays five to 10 egg clusters during her lifetime, with around 14 eggs per cluster.

有趣的是，雌性荔蝽似乎有“強迫癥”，其卵通常是14粒排列成塊。

One distinctive feature of the species is that the female typically arranges her eggs in neat clusters of 14.

福建農林大學研究員劉長明介紹：“14粒是它的最大限度，荔蝽每次產卵數量不可能多于14粒。”所以，常見的卵塊確實多為14粒。

荔蝽最有力的防身武器是它頭部的腺體，能分泌噴射出惡臭的毒液，聞之令人作嘔，所以它的別名又叫“臭屁蟲”。

臭液本身還自帶很強的腐蝕性，又含有組織胺等成分，很容易把人“燒傷”：

▌臭液接觸到皮膚，可引起刺痛、紅腫、瘙癢等刺激性癥狀。大概就像用剛切完辣椒的手碰了臉，不一會兒就會火辣辣地疼。

▌不小心濺到眼睛更麻煩，存在角膜潰瘍甚至失明的危險。

沾了蟲卵的衣服還能穿嗎？

晾曬在陽臺的衣物、毛巾質地柔軟，潮濕度剛好，又帶著淡淡芳香，很容易吸引荔蝽在上面產卵。

單純的蟲卵其實并不會對人造成什么傷害，也就是看起來惡心了點。

在收衣服時如果發現蟲卵，不要用手直接碰觸，可以用刷子或牙簽把黏住的蟲卵刷掉，之后再將衣物重新清洗干凈。

While the eggs themselves pose no direct threat to humans, experts advise caution if they are found on clothing or bedding. If you discover egg clusters on fabric, avoid touching them directly with your hands. Instead, use a brush or toothpick to gently remove them, then wash the items thoroughly.

被臭液噴到了如何應對？

如果臭液接觸到皮膚，可以用堿性肥皂清洗或者一天多次涂抹肥皂水以緩解癥狀，正常情況3—5天會慢慢痊愈。

如果癥狀持續惡化或者直接噴到眼睛，請立即到醫院就診。千萬別自行滴眼藥水或者抓撓傷口，以免釀成無法挽回的后果。

If the insect's defensive fluid comes into contact with your skin, wash the affected area thoroughly with alkaline soap or soapy water. In most cases, any irritation should subside within three to five days.

However, if symptoms persist or worsen, or if the fluid gets into your eyes, seek medical attention immediately. Do not rub the affected eye or attempt self-treatment with over-the-counter eye drops, as doing so could make the injury worse.

不想被“噴”？做好這幾件事！

▌別碰它：荔蝽很少主動招惹人，絕大部分人被“攻擊”，是因為管不住手去拍打、碰觸，使其受到驚嚇而采取防御措施，導致被灼傷。

▌裝紗窗：紗窗和紗門可以有效隔絕荔蝽入侵室內。

▌勤快點：晾曬在陽臺的衣物、毛巾等容易吸引荔蝽產卵，干了就盡快收！

▌關燈：荔蝽喜光，建議陽臺燈光隨開隨關，晚上記得拉上窗簾并關緊陽臺門。
