here..a lil bit infos bout that beetle ..sheett!:
There is a very small insect called "Rove Beetle" in Malaysia (length 2-10 mm) which is extremely poisonous. The poison of this insect is 12 times more poisonous than Cobra snake and it is called ‘pederin’ (chemical formula: C24 H43 O9 N). If you see one of these on your arm or body, do not hit it, rather blow it away and wash it with water and soap immediately (and your hands also). The insect does not bite normally but its body is poisonous.
If you hit this beetle, the poison will spread on your body and your hands get poisoned. After that wherever you touch (on your body) will be affected. The poison will remain in the injured sections, so if you touch the injuries later and touch other areas (in case your skin is sensitive) the other areas will be also effected.
In 2002, students in Penang (in dormitories) were caught in an epidemic of this, and this is very common in Engineering campus of USM.
