Ma Lu, also known as millipede, is an arthropod from biped, terrestrial. The worm is1~ 2cm long, yellow-brown, dark brown when it is big, with a hard shell on its back, flat and long, and consists of many links. The whole body can be divided into three parts: head, chest and abdomen. There are yellow and black rings on the back.

Although millipedes don't have poisonous jaws and can't sting people, they also have defensive weapons and skills. When it is touched, it will immediately curl up, stand still, or roll to other places, and then slowly stretch out and climb away after the danger has passed. Millipedes have smelly glands on their joints, which can secrete a poisonous and smelly liquid. The smell is so bad that neither poultry nor birds dare to peck it.
Millipedes don't bite, but when they touch and play with it, they will secrete toxins that can cause local irritation, and in severe cases, they can cause obvious erythema, herpes and necrosis. The toxic secretion of millipedes in the skin should be washed with plenty of soap and water, but alcohol must not be used. If the skin reacts, corticosteroids can be used externally. Eye injuries should be washed immediately and corticosteroid eye drops or ointment should be used.
Ma Lu likes humidity, which is easy to bring bacteria. When quicklime is scattered in its haunts, its humid environment will become dry, and red deer will not breed. You can also use "triazolam" spray, but people with allergic skin had better not use it.
