  1. All answers thus far are good but be sure to remove the stinger first.  If it's too late for a meat tenderizer, ice and time will help.l


  2. I know this sounds stupid but meat tenderizer it helps so much. U should us it quickly or it wont work. Works with hornets and wasp 2!!

  3. You Put Petroleum Jelly

  4. you can use mud.

    i think you can use viniger too.

    thats what they put on me when i got stung at least.

  5. Mix baking soda with water to make a paste.  Put it on the sting and leave it there until the paste dried and starts to clump off.

    When that happens it means it should have stopped stinging.  It is best to do this as soon as possible.

    Good luck!

  6. i cant remember which one but its vinegar or milk, one works for bee stings and the other for wasps but i can never get them right

  7. I have been keeping honey bees for several years now and i feel pretty confident about answering this one. Some form of benidryl or antihistamine will help with the itching and possibly the swelling if taken soon after the sting. You will receive lots of input about thinngs like meat tendorizer, tobacco,baking soda an other topical treatments. they are all just wives tales. I have tried and they none seam to work. the venom of a wasp is different than that of a honey bee. a honey bees venom is an irritant used to defend the hive while a wasps venom is used to kill its prey. My best advice is to not rub or scratch and let it run its course. it is normal for it to be sore for a coupel of days

    I have had one itch for as little as a few minuts or as long as a weak

  8. Vinegar as the acid in it neutralises the bee sting venom/poison.

    Good Luck. X :-)
