Was unpacking a dozen or so 2nd-3rd instars of these little guys today. One somehow ran up my forceps :? and on to my arm. He was actually pretty calm at first, i tried for two minutes to coax him back into the vial. I finally got him in, but right before entering the vial he tagged me 2-3 times, then quickly darted into the vial
My pain scale is a bit messed up. 1 being a bee sting and 10 being teeth getting knocked out or a stingray sting, this was about a 3. Waves of pain needles up my arm for 10 minutes. Localized pain for a few hours afterwards, left a nasty swollen welt on my arm.
Would hate to get tagged by an adult.
