Man o War !

We saw several yesterday washed up on the beach at St George Island, FL. From what I understand, you don’t want to step on one of these tiny little jellyfish. A world of severe hurt ensues. Careful out there, metal detectors! Our dog was very curious of it as well. We had to hold it back from grabbing it.

When I was a kid we went to Miami every summer to visit grandparents. We went to the beach one year and those things were everywhere. I thought they were balloons.😝 Luckily someone told me what they were before I grabbed one!

Blue stingers we call them. Vinegar is the antidote for the pain. Lessens it by a huge amount. Damn they hurt!

They wash up on the beaches in Florida often. I was surf fishing once and a tourist family was walking by. There were a few Man O Wars washed up on the sand. A little boy from the family ran up and stomped on one, I guess thinking it was a balloon. Poor kid started screaming. I told them to put meat tenderizer on it & it would help a lot.
