When catching catfish can they sting you?

Pee on the wound Urine may help jellyfish stings feel a little better but will do little for the actual problem at hand. On the ambulance we carried a little jar of MSG, monosodium glutemate. It is also known as meat tenderizer. MSG is a protein dissolver, which is how it breaks down the proteins in meats and make them more tender. The slime on the catfish is the actual culprit and when stung by a catfish, this slime gets into the cut or wound and plays heck on the nerves. Spit into your hand and add the MSG. Mix until a paste is formed and place directly on the wound. Bandage and in about 30 minutes the poison will be nullified. This works well for jellyfish stings, bee and wasp stings. Listerine works best for fire ant stings. put some on a small cotton ball and squeeze out most of the excess, apply the cotton ball to the bite site and bandage with a bandaid and it will aid in the burning and can help with the little white blisters that sometimes follow. Clinically speaking, urine is best for atheletes foot. It is bacteriostatic, or free from bacteria and can help atletes foot go away faster. Just pee on your feet in the shower.

How did catfish get its name?

Because language is arbitrary and most words do not have any kind of resemblance to real-world objects. Words are symbols, in the same way the letter W represents a certain sound, but there's no reason why it couldn't represent the sound represented by the letter M if everyone agreed that it did.

If you changed your name tomorrow you would still be the same human being, just with a different set of sounds as your name.

The word "fish" comes from Old English, and before that from Germanic.

Raw meats do not last long in the refrigerator. Meats that are not going to be eaten in a few days should be frozen and not stored in the refrigerator.Place raw meats in freezer bags or paper or an airtight container.Then freeze them for up to 2 years.

Fish have a short shelf life than other meats. for best results it's recommended to cook raw fish within 24 hours. It's safe longer than that but you are much more likely to get that "fish" taste.

Note: If you caught the fish yourself so you know exactly how fresh it is you might be able to keep it longer.
