Podcasts about Creepy Crawlies

Along the banks of the Clark Fork River, students are identifying all kinds of “macro-invertebrates” — aka, bugs — that live in the river. The data is one clue scientists use to determine the health of a watershed, along with other indicators like appearance and chemical makeup.

Every superhero has their origin story, and a superhero of science is no different…From watching slater bugs and catching non-venomous snakes in her garden just outside Toronto in Canada, to harnessing lizards with palm fronds in the Caribbean, Tanya Latty was always going to study animals.But it wasn't until an invertebrate zoology class that her "mind exploded" and her passion for entomology became clear.She went to the Rocky Mountains to study mountain pine beetles for her PhD — where she also accidentally studied bears and cougars up close.These days Tanya is based in Australia and raises awareness and understanding of invertebrates after bushfires.This is the origin story of Associate Professor Tanya Latty.Featuring:Associate Professor Tanya Latty, entomologist and insect ecologist at the University of SydneyProduction:Ann Jones, Presenter / ProducerRebecca McLaren, ProducerHamish Camilleri, Sound EngineerThis episode of What the Duck?! was produced on the land of the Wadawarrung and Taungurung people.Find more episodes of the ABC podcast, What the Duck?! with the always curious Dr Ann Jones exploring the mysteries of nature on the ABC Listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Greetings, Twenty-Siders! It’s full-fledged combat against a group of carrion crawlers. Like Gorgar, they will eat you! Let’s hope the party is anything but delicious. Enjoy the Adventure…

Our Halloween tradition continues with another look at "What Scares You?". This time it's those terrible little skittering creatures that make us jump and recoil, the infamous "creepy crawlies"!!! We have a couple of movies from different eras that both feature multi-legged monsters. From way back in 1975 comes "Bug" from genre stalwart Jeannot Szwarc. It's a surprisingly bleak and rough film, with giant cockroaches that can start fires. Many people fall victim to them and the lead character, played by the legendary Bradford Dilman is driven slowly insane as he studies them. This is good pulpy stuff. We follow that with 2012's "The Bay" from director Barry Levinson. This is a really cool twist on the "Found Footage" genre, mixing together lots of different found-footaged to tell the story of a bay that is overrun by carnivorous isopods. Everything about this one is excellent and it is a truly unique framework to tell a story. Send us an email to let us know what scares YOU! You can email us at flickersfrom@yahoo.com or flickersfrom@gmail.com. You can also reach us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Every year, thousands of hikers, trekkers, and adventure travelers return from their journeys with more than just memories — sometimes, they bring home unwanted hitchhikers: parasitic worms. In this eye-opening episode, we dig into the fascinating (and sometimes unsettling) world of travel-related worm infections. From hookworms that burrow through bare feet on tropical beaches to tapeworms hiding in undercooked meals, we uncover where these parasites live, how they infect humans, and what symptoms to watch for after a trip abroad. You'll learn how to recognize the warning signs, how to diagnose worm infections, and how modern treatments like albendazole work to clear them from the body. Whether you're planning a backpacking trip through Southeast Asia or a trek across South America, this episode will help you stay safe, informed, and worm-free on your next adventure.

Spiders get a bad rap as nasty, creepy crawlies out to get us. In fact, they are interesting, complex, and mighty animals with a variety of traits and lifestyles.

Here in Aotearoa, and on Afternoons in fact, we love our critters. And that passion for insects, bugs and plants is backed up by the fact that we've logged nearly three million observations on the citizen science platform iNaturalist.. The website, which has been running in New Zealand since 2012, brings together curious members of the public with expert identifiers to track populations of thousands of species. This has led to new sightings of native species, and important discoveries of invasive species. Jon Sullivan is an ecologist based at Lincoln University and is one of the founders of iNaturalist.

This episode of Sole Sisters kicks off with some misguided Black Friday purchases from Alice; and Elise battling lack of sleep thanks to her kelpie's bout of doggy gastro. Elise recaps her recent 10k race, while Alice has been shopping around the run club scene. For the main topic, Alice and Elise dive into the importance of cross-training to complement any running program. With fewer road running events on the calendar this time of year in Australia, it's all about building the base you need for the next training block. That means focusing on making your body stronger and more resilient for the training ahead through non-running activities like cycling, swimming, but above all – strength training. The duo dissect Valencia Marathon which happened on Sunday, throwing a spotlight on Andy Buchanan's new Australian Record of 2:06:22 and Izzi Batt-Doyle running 2:22:59 to become the 3rd fastest Aussie woman all time. The episode closes with the usual recommendations, and we've added a bonus one here of Sara Hall hammering for 2nd place at London Marathon during covid.

My Link Tree can be found at: https://linktr.ee/CauseofDeathpod This season is called “Creepy Crawlies” and today, I'm going to be talking about one of the strangest and most dangerous among them, Naegleria fowleri. This animal is the brain eater that's made a huge splash, pun intended, in the media over the last couple of years. While this organism thrives in temperatures above 80° Fahrenheit, it can be found in lake or river sediment at temperatures well below that. The mortality rate for PAM is roughly 97% with only four people out of 157 having survived in the US between 1962 and 2022. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/350905632_Naegleria_fowleri_Sources_of_infection_pathophysiology_diagnosis_and_management_a_review https://www.thoughtco.com/the-life-of-an-amoeba-4054288 https://www.thoughtco.com/what-are-cells-373361 https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/naegleria/general.html https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/naegleria/index.html https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/conditions/infections/Pages/naegleria-fowleri-the-brain-eating-amoeba-how-to-prevent-this-rare-infection.aspx https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK535447/ https://www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/naegleria/index.html https://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/publications/p01085.pdf https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9964342/ https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/laboratory-biosafety-biosecurity/pathogen-safety-data-sheets-risk-assessment/naegleria-fowleri.html https://www.tceq.texas.gov/toxicology/q-a/amoeba https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/public-health/why-brain-eating-amoeba-infections-are-becoming-more-common.html https://weather.com/health/video/rare-brain-eating-amoeba-cases-could-rise-due-to-climate-change?cm_ven=PS_GGL_DSA_09162019_1&par=MK_GGL&tpcc=mktg-search-Google-acquisition&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAuYuvBhApEiwAzq_YiUAkKam_smsl0ezdn7j4gstP7QyZTDtoE5uFzjHC_5siNsBL80-DpxoCdt4QAvD_BwE https://www.science.org/content/article/repurposed-drug-battles-brain-eating-amoeba https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7783332/ https://byjus.com/biology/amoeba/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31612525/#:~:text=Though%20the%20exact%20pathogenesis%20of,pathogen%20invading%20the%20host%20CNS. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4604384/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0001706X16305897 https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acschemneuro.6b00232 https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1440-1681.13192 https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/223910-overview?form=fpf https://academic.oup.com/femspd/article/51/2/243/888715 https://academic.oup.com/f https://journals.asm.org/doi/full/10.1128/aac.01293-15 https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/medicine-and-dentistry/naegleria-fowleri https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11684-021-0865-2 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/350905632_Naegleria_fowleri_Sources_of_infection_pathophysiology_diagnosis_and_management_a_review https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Reported-cases-of-primary-amebic-meningoencephalitis-n-381-by-country-of-exposure-No_fig1_341190198 https://applications.emro.who.int/imemrf/Parasitologists_United_J/Parasitologists_United_J_2012_5_2_93_104.pdf https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-642-73772-5_88 https://www.academia.edu/70102030/A_Review_on_Global_Distribution_of_Primary_Amoebic_Meningoencephalitis_PAM_Caused_By_Naegleria_Fowleri_The_Brain_Eating_Amoeba https://acsw.dypvp.edu.in/documents/Study-Material/Microbiology-TYBSc/Entamoeba-histolytica.pdf https://doh.wa.gov/sites/default/files/legacy/Documents/5100/420-002-epitrends2019-03.pdf https://acsw.dypvp.edu.in/documents/Study-Material/Microbiology-TYBSc/Entamoeba-histolytica.pdf   Darkcast Network – Promo by Yours Truly Podcast Promos: Rogue Darkness Hands Off My Podcast Weird True Crime Sponsors: True Leaf Market https://trueleafmarket.com use promo code COFD 10 at checkout for $10 off any order of $50 or more.

Welcome to Botched: A D&D Podcast!  Season 8, where 5th Edition D&D meets SCP! It's a dark and stormy night. The MTF squad known as “The Creepy Crawlies” has just completed a deadly mission, and only 3 of them made it out alive. They need somewhere to ride out this storm before returning to their own site. Site 69 just happens to be the closest Site available. Once inside, the SCP in question is secured with all the necessary precautions. However, the storm causes all of the generators to fail, leading to a total blackout at Site 69. The last thing anyone wants with this new SCP in custody. Before long, all hell breaks loose, and the main researchers at Site 69 decide to go to Chili's instead. Leaving the site in the not very capable hands of Tucker. We follow three low level staff in the breakroom when the power goes out. The fate of the entire Site and possibly even more, rests in their hands getting the generator started back up again. Who are these low level staff? How will they save the site when MTF cannot? What SCP is on the loose and why are they so dangerous in the dark? Why are there so many gummy snacks, and random beers in this place? Tune in and find out! We now have a PO Box! Wanna send us something?

This week on Serenbe Stories, we're chatting with Thomas Peters, Sernebe's Director of Landscape and Horticulture, all about the creatures that call Serenbe home - from songbirds and butterflies to snakes and other creepy crawlies (Halloween is just around the corner, after all). Thomas joined the Serenbe team in 2017 after receiving his Master's degree in Landscape Architecture from the University of Georgia. In his time here, he has played a central role in implementing natural approaches to landscape management, planting pollinator habitats for a thriving local ecosystem, and ensuring that Serenbe remains a place where people embrace the natural world. In addition to our discussion about Serenbe's wildlife, we also talk about Thomas's lifelong passion for the outdoors and how we can all learn to value nature in its many forms. Show Notes & Further ReadingLandscape Architecture at the University of GeorgiaR.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers had to deal with some minibeasts, AKA insects, and surprisingly neither of them moved or burned the whole house down to vanquish them.

A Californian by nature and birth, she thinks Atlanta is both too hot and too cold, but she has learned to love the fall foliage.Rachel Mans McKenny is a writer and mom from the Midwest. Her work has been published in The New York Times, Washington Post, McSweeney's Internet Tendency, and other outlets, and her debut novel, The Butterfly Effect, is the 2022 All- Iowa Reads selection (and is very buggy).
