I've been wondering if kids mistakingly play with beetles with these "Cantharides Poisoning." Imagine babies clawing on the ground what we mostly see here in Africa, most of our places are full of dust that our babies may come in contact with beetles 🪲. I've really learnt some and I would teach my kids how they shouldn't play with beetles.

Funny enough, it is found in warm regions. There are a lot of things that we do not know that are very toxic but maybe I would call it instinct or just good judgment, we often do not go near them. I do not think this particular beetle flies everywhere like Tsetse fly in Africa
