Plenty of great ECRs in the @VenomsLab who are newly on Twitter and could use a signal boost! Check out 🐜 @stingscience for all things hymenoptera and using venom to understand pain. His #stingofthewild where he deliberately stings himself and rates the pain is hilarious!

I'd like to point out that when we found this specimen Sam assured me I could pick it up because it wouldn't sting. Moments later, you can zoom in on his pained face as it nipped him. Pain lasted about 40 minutes. As venoms scientists, we commit. #WildOz #StingOfTheWild #scicomm

Loving the Australian updates to the venomous animal pain scale! Just like a chocolate milkshake, only country probably doesn't make sense outside of 🇦🇺! Go follow @stingscience for more updates! #StingOfTheWild

Lots of bigger creatures want to make bugs a meal, but many ants, wasps, and bees have a trick to level the field: they can sting! Stop by the Stings'n'Things booth at #azinsectfest to learn about the sting of insects, spiders and scorpions! #stingofthewild #dontbugme #insects

Not going to pet the tarantula hawk wasp! The entomologist who created the Schmidt Pain Scale is coming to UNL in February! #stingofthewild https://t.co/J1prkSDee2
