Stung by a wasp..... in the eye!

-
I got it also, lifted a lid on a cardboard box in the shop and they were underneath the lid, got me 12 times before I got out the door.
 
Dayam Axe......ID go on a crusade to kill every wasp on the block.

I was out in the yard doing some work and they're flying around. I got a can of wasp spray so as of today I have "kilt" two of them. I hit one with the spray and he fell straight to the ground. I stomped the s**t out of him!
Lil bastards!

On man now that is getting it good right there! oooo weeee!
 
I got home today and walked out to the shop in order to walk the dog. While I was inserting the key into the lock a wasp stung me in the eye! I stepped back "WTF! and noticed the wasp landed on the peep sight of the door. I walked around in front of the door and he was protecting the peep sight for some unknown reason. I went got the wasp spray and "kilt it" but damage had already been done. :angry5:

Benadryl will help in swelling, but that sucks! I got hit by a wasp in the elbow, It stung so bad I thought I backed into a roofing nail!
 
Thanks for the comments and laughs

Looks better this morning. lol

I ride a motorcycle so I can imagine what that was like having a wasp fly in your helmet.
Most of the time I ride with shield down but it could happen.....ouch
A few years after it happened I was riding thru Sussex County NJ with my now EX on the back. We were talking with the shields up and I had got stung again, this time in the cheek. Sure am glad I am not like my Dad was, allergic. Think what we have here in Washington are Hornets. Have only gotten nailed once since we have been here.
 
That sucks, hope the benadryl kicks in soon!

We had hung our laundry out on the clothes line to dry. Folded my jeans up and put them in the drawer. I got up the next morning to go to work and found out one was hiding in my pants leg. Spent the night in the drawer just waiting for me.

I was about to zip up when he tagged me on the thigh. I threw my jeans down around my ankles and tried to hop away. I don't know what I was thinking. He was a big angry red one that didn't make friends with my boot.

I took some benadryl and kept an ice pack on it. It burned and itched more than anything. I wasn't going to complain because he could have stung a much worse spot.

That's his story,I really think she decked him. LOL

2 weeks ago we were getting ready to leave for vacation, and I got a wasp sting on my right hand. My wife told me to put vinegar on it. I did, and it stopped hurting almost immediately. I'm 62 years old and I've been married to this woman for 35+ of those years, and I never heard of that before. But, it works!

When ever I hurt one of my fingers my wife tells me to soak them in cider.
(in side her) LOL!

Same thing happened to me went right up under my helmet. Holy crap talk about hurt.


Ouch...Holy hell, that's bad. :(

My second-worst sting incident was tooling along somewhere north of 55MPH on a country road on my old Suzuki...Had my helmet's visor cracked a bit. Wasp thumped against it and somehow stayed. I reached up to brush her off but she decided to crawl into my helmet through the cracked visor instead.

Got stung five times before I could get my helmet off. :( Cramming the helmet back on for the rest of the ride home was pretty brutal.
 
That sucks, I had one sting me in the nuts back the in the day while I was three floors in the air on a beam.
 
If I came home and a woman was in my house I would have carpet burns on my knees instead of a swollen eye... I'm single. lol

I believe that.

My dog learned how to beg from watching Mully in the bedroom.... He's a pro now... LOL!!!
 
this thread is bringing back memories of bee stings ...i have only had one run in with bees so far in summer of 10.....yellowjackets.......i was moving some cars in the yard and there was a nest under a wheel stand and i didnt know about it untill i moved the wheel stand and i felt a sting on my arm and it seemed like slow motion but i actually saw more coming right at me ....i ended up taking three to my right arm one on my neck and one got in my shirt and stung me under my arm into my boob lol ....and they all swelled up really bad .....oh man that was painful.....took me a while re-coop and get back to normal ....so now i keep a couple cans of wasp and bee killer handy when im going to move stuff in the yard........bees and snakes are the big hazard here....oh yea and black widows......but carb cleaner takes care of the spiders. .........hope you recover fast and sorry to hear of this mishap.
 
I got nailed by a nest of white faced ground hornets when I was a ninenyear old kid running through the woods with my friends.

I remember they were in my shirt, down my pants, in my face, in my friggin shoes.

I don't think they missed a spot.

Needless to say my mom ran me to the hospital and I passed out twice on the way there.

The nurse stopped counting at 100 stings and estimated I had over 300 stings so luckily I was not allergic to the bastards and a good ol shot of Benadryl did the trick and I was back in business later that day.

Another weird one was when I was cutting grass on my riding mower where I got stung on my funny bone by one of those tiny ground bees....the ones that live in the hole in the ground.
The sting would have not been so bad of it did not lose its stinger inside my elbow right in a nerve bundle.
It stayed with me for 2 weeks, felt like a constant toothache in my elbow and was uncomfortable as fok every time I moved my arm a certain way.....it was a gift that kept giving.
Most annoying feeling.
I learned from my buddy that one single drop of gasoline in their hole in the ground will make them leave and in the morning they will be gone.
I did not believe it until I tried it.
I was always under the impression that you use a lot of gasoline then light it on fire...lol but one tiny eye dropper size is all you need he said.
I used about a teaspoon and it did the trick.
