some info on bees and wasps
I’ve been stung by a carpenter bee. They’re usually pretty chill.
And dirt daubers are bros.
It’s true you can pet Bumblebees
I’ve been mercilessly killing paper wasps and now I feel terrible 😭
I thought they were like yellow jackets!!! I wanna apologize to all the innocent paper wasps I’ve crushed!!!
yeah then there’s the tarantula hawk, which is a type of spider wasp, because of course that’s a thing.
so yanno. that’s pleasant.
a dude researching them described the pain as “…immediate, excruciating, unrelenting pain that simply shuts down one’s ability to do anything, except scream. Mental discipline simply does not work in these situations.”
good times.
