[Cases of mass karakurt bites in Uzbekistan].

Abstract

In 1981-1984 in Uzbekistan (the Navoi and Khorezm Provinces, the Karakalpak ASSR) 463 cases of bites by Latrodectus tredecimguttatus have been registered (372 cases, in 1983). The highest number of bites was observed at the end of May and the first half of July. Mild and subacute intoxications prevailed. No fatal outcomes were registered. The L. tredecimguttatus bites occurred mostly during the night sleep in the tents. A high number of spiders in the pastures (3-4 specimens per sq. meter) was due to abundant atmospheric precipitation and heat in 1980-1982. The treatment of spiders' accumulation sites with 2.0% chlorophos solution or 12.0% HCCH dust killed the spiders, which resulted in considerable decrease in the number of registered intoxication cases.
