See that dark cloud dancing above you, blocking out the sun? That's a swarm of vesnids, one of the deadliest insects in the world! While a single vesnid is only the size of a fingernail, they always form part of a larger colony that live in spires. Spires are built from chewed-up wood and mucus. Each spire houses an amazingly complex community of workers, administrators, sentinels, undertakers, nurses, and emperor vesnids. A vesnid sting has been known to take down a korox. Lucky for us, they only cause minimal damage to a javelin. So feel free to take a moment and enjoy the furious buzzing of a cloud of vesnids!
