These insects should be quickly brushed off the skin so that they do not continue to deliver painful stings. Their stinger does not pull out of their body. Unlike honeybees, wasps, yellowjackets and hornets can deliver multiple stings through a lance-like stinger. You can read more about honeybees and africanized honeybees on our AHB page. A sideways scraping motion with a fingernail, credit card or even car key will remove the stinger without squeezing the venom sac, which would pump more venom into the victim. Because of this, it is important to remove the stinger as quickly as possible. Attached to the stinger is a venom sac that will continue to pump venom into your skin for 2 to 3 minutes. The honeybee has a barbed stinger which detaches from her body when she stings. An example of this would be anaphylactic shock. If a person has a severe allergic reaction to a sting, the sting may develope into a serious health threat or may even be fatal. In a very small percentage of people ( 1 or 2 in 1,000 ) a sting from a bee or wasp can be much more serious, even life threatening. This is a good reason to rid your home of large numbers of wasps or nearby nests. Most people who are stung will experience pain, swelling, itching and or redness at the sting site. When a bee or wasp stings, it uses its stinger to inject a venomous fluid under the skin.
