Yellow jacket sting

[ChrisS]

So yesterday I was at the drive thru and a yellow jacket decided I haven't been stung in awhile I need a good sting. So here is the aftermath today. I've been keeping honey bees since I was 8 or 9 and have never received a sting quite this severe.

Got ya good, didn't it?

Are you sure it was a yellow jacket? Could it have been a European wasp or paper wasp?

[ChrisS]

I am certain it was a yellow jacket I pulled it off my arm and crushed it.

Ouch! When I get stung, the area puffs up like a balloon and it burns and itches profusely. I would much rather take a bite from one of my snakes any day!

I was stung in the drive thru at a fast food restaurant I'm not exterminating their problem without a fee lol. Sorry for being a baby, I was just impressed by the amount of swelling, I'll never speak of it again until some one else comments lol.
