yeah at least when a bee stings u its gotta decide if its really worth it as they rip their guts out tryna pull away from ya with their hook shape stinger. wasps with their straight stingers can just sting ya as often they like for no bloody reason whatsoever.
bastards n they dont even make honey or some other useful shit like bees.

ooh ooh i know a remedy!!!


i believe its baking soda on bee stings and vinegar on wasp stings (something to do with balancing out the acidity)

you make a paste of it and leave it on for about half an hour. hope this helps (i got stung on sole of me foot when i was a nipper cor blimey that was a shock!)

Actually, it's the bumblebee that isn't supposed to. Something about being too big and hairy.

The worst thing you can do when a wasp, hornet, or bee is buzzing near you is to start flapping your arms. Stay still and calm. A bumble-bee (your typical common or garden pollen harvester) is a curious creature and will recognise you are not a flower quite quickly and will fly off. A bee dies if it stings you. Bees are good for the garden. Please don't kill them.

Wasps on the otherhand are not so passive. They are attracted to sweet foods and they quite like beer. If you're drinking beer outside, best thing is to use a glass rather than a can. There are numerous incidents each summer where people have been stung on or in the mouth because they didn't realise a wasp was inside the can they were drinking out of.

If you make a wasp angry, it will sting you. Remain still and calm and more often then not they'll fly away.

Hornets live in places like empty tree stumps near river banks. Hornet stings are particularly painful.

I'd like to see you "take it like a man" when you're dying from anaphylactic shock.

Yeah, if someone stepped on you, you'd be flailing your "stinger" at it too.

Unlike Vlad though, you wouldn't drop it after sticking it in some...thing.

But you get the point. If they don't get pissed off, they don't sting you. So, stop poking them!

Especially wasps, them are killer cool massacre flyers.

they are able to fly and should be, they cant glide is the thing, hence the noise cause they are always flapping thier wings**

Oh one thing to know though.

As bee's leave their stinger behind, it's not just "Hah! Got me arse on that human!", but also, the stinger sends out feromones into the air.

So, get rid of that sucker asap, the other bee's don't like you smelling of another bee's arse.

I got stung by a bumble bee last week for the 1st time in my life. Have to say it felt very different to bees or wasps. No swelling but intense pain. A day later I noticed the tissue around the injection point turned into a light shade of blue. Since I had never seen that before with a wasp or bee sting I went into a google frenzy. :)
I found out that not much is known about bumble bee venom as opposed to bee/wasp/hornet venom. While bees, wasp and hornets use basicly the same enzyme cocktail wich causes inflamation and pain (hornets venom contains more of the pain inducing substances) bumble bees seem to use a nerve agent that induces pain by directly attacking and damaging tissue on a cellular level. Very interesting isnt it? Also explains why the tip of my thumb was somewhat numb and tingling the day after.

Yes, that myth is about bumble bees. But its just that: a myth. It originates from the fact that some aircraft engineers analyzed bumble bees and came to the conclusion that their wings havn't got enough surface in relation to the bumble bees body mass to provide the necessary lift. However they did not account in their calculations that bumble bees move their wings at extreme speed. They are more like helicopters than birds or planes. A helicopters 'wings' (the rotor blades) wouldn't provide enough lift either if they weren't moving.

i have been stung my a bumble bee before on the neck. my mam had to use a needle and some kind of sucking technique to remove the sting.

i also remember as a child that my friend and i would trap bumble bees in a bottle. find an un suspecting group of kids we didnt like and throw the opend bottle at them :(.
twas a right battle ground where i lived. you needed tactics and wits, if you didnt attack first and disable everyone then youd be fucked.

Bee-revenge in several easy steps:

1. Obtain a vessel; a jam jar or some other air-tight capsule-device will do.
2. Locate a bee, preferably one that is stationary or having a kip.
3. Place said vessel over said bee.
4. Chuckle as it fights to get out of it's new 1/2cm-thick glass prison.
5. Seal the jar (perhaps with a lid!) and place in freezer.
6. Entertain yourself for 15-20 minutes in any manner you see fit...
7. Retrieve vessel+bee from afforementioned freezer.
8. Ensure bee is lying unconscious. Movement is bad, but death is worse. If bee is dead, go to step 2.
9. Find the nearest female or alternative male with an eye for sewing.
10. Locate a length of cotton; a couple of feet will do.
11. Instruct said person to carefully tie cotton around foot of bee.
12. Attach non-bee end of cotton, via bluetac or further tying, to stationary object outside - e.g. a table.
13. Set up a video camera.
14. Watch in glee as bee comes-to and attempts to fly away to safety.
15. Clap hands as bee flies round and round and round in circles, in somewhat of a pendulum motion.
