I thought 1 type of sarra(flava I think) got a kind of drug inside its nectar for easier prey.

Well my flava is full of nectar...You can even see it at the throat and on the top of the floppy lid..And no i don't think nectar will affect us in any ways....Even if it affects bugs its too little to affect us in my own thought..

There is chemical in some of the sarra (not purpurea and maybe psittacina) it make insect 'drunk' and can even kill ants out right. I do know the name of the chemical but I can't remeber it. Sorry.
