How many times have you been stung by a wasp/bee?

[Spinneret]

None luckily

I am sure it happened a couple of times when I was a kid, but honestly, I can't even remember. It hasn't happened to me in a very long time.

Bees and wasps - none. But I am a mosquito magnet! Not sure which is worse.

I remember nearly getting a bee sting on my way to summer school in 2013. Luckily it wasn’t that bad and I didn’t need to go to the ER. I was and still am petrified by these creatures.

Incidents. About 5 or 6. . Total stings between them. About 500.

From a 1 sting bee sting to a 200 sting yellow jacket nest run over.

Not sure I have ever been stung by a wasp, no idea about bees. Stepped on a lot of bees when I was barefoot as a kid. Pull the stinger out, and got back to playing.

So...it was not efficient enough to grow green beans on a string...so science at Oregon State University invented a green bean plant that was a bush....a very flowery plant in rows that needed to be irraggeted by moving an aluminum pipe up and over rows upon rows... where ground dwelling bumblebees lived and since they didn't offend Zeus.... they could sting over sting and not lose their stinger. .... pulling down your 501s and applying mud was always my go to first aid...over and over and over

Like run over the underground nest with a lawn mower or a tractor or a bulldozer trying to blaze a trail.... I never had the opportunity to drive a bulldozer ... but for sure a push lawn mower and orchard tractor

 

[Kooks and Bay Bay]

At least 5 that I can recall.

3 of those times it was literally that I just touched a stinger that was somewhere.

Maybe 2 or 3 times that I can recall being stung by a wasp when I was a kid, but nothing for over 25+ years.

Never been stung by a bee. Usually always very cautious around them as don't want to kill them, and all the bees I've come across seem quite docile.

In the worst thing for disturbing a nest possible. One of those little Bobcats. I have experienced it with a push mower as well. You'll take a few stings in that case too.
