Denim Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 I got stung by just one of those wasps. Hurt like hell. Hate to think how bad many bites would feel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that wasps bite, just sting. Only last year I got stung by six of them, when I got near to their nest. The force with which they hit you plus the sting made me fall down and I felt quite dizzy as they hit the back of my neck! The neighbour destroyed the nest by setting fire to it with burning straw on the end of a long stick! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrickduclou Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Got stung yesterday by 5 wasps while I was cutting a hedge. It really hurts. Went to Bangkok Hospital, they gave me antihistamines, antibiotics, a balm and some pain killer plus a tetanos booster. I feel ok today but it letf a hole where the wasps stung me.
