What does getting stung by a bee feel like?

Question

and is there a difference in the feeling of getting stung by a bee a wasp or a hornet?

Answer 1

Being stung by a bee is like taking a strong shot of liqour. Burns at first, then feels warm and kinda good. Wasps just hurt and swell badly.

Answer 2

dunno but I imagine it hurts like h**l - some people are allergic to their stings..

Answer 3

A bee sting, given that the stinger comes off in your skin, has more of a burn to it, since the sac that delivers the poison comes off with it. A wasp's sting is sharper and more immediate, whereas a bee's sting lingers longer.

All from personal experience, of course. I've managed to step on both bees and wasps while in my bare feet.
