A bee sting strictly means a sting from a bee. In the vernacular it can mean a sting of a bee, wasp, hornet, or yellowjacket. Some people may even call the bite of a horse-fly a bee sting. The stings of most of these species can be quite painful, and are therefore an object of dread for many people. It is important to differentiate a bee sting from an insect bite. It is also important to recognize that the venom or toxin of stinging insects is quite different.

  • A bee sting strictly means a sting from a bee. In the vernacular it can mean a sting of a bee, wasp, hornet, or yellowjacket. Some people may even call the bite of a horse-fly a bee sting. The stings of most of these species can be quite painful, and are therefore an object of dread for many people. It is important to differentiate a bee sting from an insect bite. It is also important to recognize that the venom or toxin of stinging insects is quite different. Therefore, the body's reaction to a bee sting may differ significantly from one species to another. The most aggressive stinging insects are vespid wasps but not hornets in general (e.g. , the European hornet is gentle). All of these insects aggressively defend their nests. In people who are allergic to bee stings, a sting may trigger a dangerous anaphylactic reaction that is potentially deadly. Honey bee stings release pheromones that prompt other nearby bees to attack.
  • Свежедобытый пчелиный яд представляет собой прозрачную, слегка желтоватую жидкость, горькую и жгучую на вкус, со своеобразным резким ароматическим запахом. Удельный вес яда пчелиного равен 1,1313, рН водного его раствора 4,5-5,5. Яд содержит около 40 % сухого остатка и на воздухе быстро высыхает. Но, несмотря на это, токсические свойст­ва его сохраняются в течение долгого времени.
