Sorry to hear that. Stinging kids certainly takes precedence to being nice to bees. Knowing that I don't blame you a bit.

I try to avoid killing bees in general. They actually contribute to society.
Unlike wasps. Those things are worthless and so ****ing hateful. I avoid them because I may have spontaneously developed an allergy to them but if every last wasp on this planet died right now I wouldn't shed a tear. |

Lol. Lol.
Wasps and yellow jackets are satans asshole. Last week I stuck my hand in a glove that 3 honey bees had crawled in and they zapped me. My fault. A year ago in the fall I. Owed over a ground nest of yellow jackets. They hit me 30-40 times and we went to war. Hornet spray just pisses them off. After a few cups of gas into a far sizzled a few hundred, I went nuclear and dumped a gallon or so of gas into the hole and then shot 2lbs of nonbinary expel over the nest. That did it. Don't do that in town but it's the most satisfying method I've found. |

I've been stung multiple times mowing hay and things when I was young. I can tell you the worst single sting by far.
I was running a tire bender (crushes rim and separates tire and rim). I lifted an implement tire that still had part of the frame attached and a bumble bee came out like lightening and stung me right in the ear hole. It felt like I'd been hit with a 2x4. I was dizzy and unbalanced and felt almost concussed for a couple of days. Black hornets hurt...wasps aren't cool, but bumble bees hurt the worst in my opinion. |

That was my fault because I was messing with bees and took my glove off to take pics. My fault. Dump gas in the hole of those ground bees. This reminded me that I need to take a couple of laps to spray wasps again. |

Beware of things like motion lights on the outside of your house. I have one on the back corner on my screened in porch. You can only get to it with a big ass ladder, and when the bulbs burn out, you have to go up a tall ladder to get to it. Last time I had to change the bulbs, I found out the wasps had filled the electrical junction box with a nest. And they came after me, 20 feet up in the air on a damn ladder. Now I soak those freakin' boxes down with wasp killer, wait about an hour, then go up.

Anybody ever run into any cicada killers? They are a big wasp species that also build ground nests. They tend to scare the everloving hell out of people. The males anyway. They will divebomb people who come near. But the thing is, it's only horny males looking for sex, who have no stinger to even harm you. Because only female wasps have stingers. Males don't. In the past we've had some on the disc golf course that I frequent. The males would hang out in a big evergreen tree on hole 9, and bomb anybody who got nearby. Harmless but scary even knowing they were harmless.
