Yellow jackets have a nasty habit of going for the face and neck area.
Yellow jackets have a nasty habit of going for the face and neck area.
Yep I got drilled on the neck a couple times this week on the tractor.
So far between 4 of us i think we have 35 yellowjacket 15 wasp or hornet and i even got stung by a damn honey bee between 2 toes with flip flops on. I have about had my fill of things that sting.
I stopped at a creek crossing on a narrow trail hiking in the mountains in college. Decided to stand on a log to get a better idea of how to get across and it crumbled under my feet. The first one got me on the arm and by the time I realized what was happening I had so many on my bare legs that it looked like I had on pants. The rest of the group I was with was behind me and weren’t getting stung. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough and because they didn’t know what was going on I almost pushed two of them over the side running down the trail. When I finally stopped and got them all off of me fear set in on what was going to happen if I was allergic to them or even if I was going to be alright considering how many times I got hit. I’m still thankful to this day that I didn’t have a bad reaction because I likely would have died before I made it back somewhere where I could get medical assistance. I also act like a complete sissy any time I encounter flying things that sting.
Hornets got me 3 times on the left hand last weekend- hand swelled up like I had on a heavy winter glove- first time I ever swole up like that. Damn they bad this year.
Big ole head like me. Easy target. Hope you feel better buddy

Damn yellowjackets almost killed me when I was 11. I hate them. Got hit 3 times a couple of weeks ago, but thankfully, all the shots I took when I was a kid made it so I didn't have a bad reaction this time.
Crops are harvested, animals are killed.
I had been thinking all this swelling was from the one sting above my eye brow. After some of the swelling has gone down today i found another sting in the outside corner of my eye right in the crease of my eye.
