Would you happily let a bee/wasp land on your hand?
 
You know, like they show on the nature shows? To prove that unless provoked a bee/wasp wouldn't sting?

Me - no. Certainly not a wasp. Bee's are pretty docile and placid so theres a chance but Never a wasp.

Maybe a bee, because they dont sting unless you scare them

But wasp...hell no. They are horrible bastards who sting for the fun of it :bored:

GypsyGoth 07-05-2011 11:27 PM

I run from them.

I do from wasps. Not bees. I usually chase bee's with my camera :joker:

That said, I'm sure some bees are living under our shed :shocked: There were wasps in the wall cavity too but I'm hoping thats sorted now

this. people tell me not to, but I do it anyway. Guess who has never been stung :huff:

joeysteele 07-05-2011 11:31 PM

A Bee yes, because they will only sting you if in danger,to get away.
A wasp no way though, they are extremely intolerant and bad tempered things.

Ninastar 07-05-2011 11:31 PM

bees are cute though. omg imagine having one on a leash and taking it for walks

MTVN 07-05-2011 11:31 PM

Bees :lovedup: I find them cute in a weird way, wasps are bastards thogh

joeysteele 07-05-2011 11:32 PM

I wouldn't want to be anywhere near Bees when they are swarming though either.

You shouldnt, when you kill them they release a pheromone that attracts more wasps....

Never, I hate most insects.

Mac Hiavellian 07-05-2011 11:34 PM

No, I haven't found out if I'm allergic to bee/wasp stings despite swallowing a wasp when I tried to take a bite out of a massive sandwich

Kerry 07-05-2011 11:35 PM

Bumble bees are great. They literally do just bumble around :D

Honeybee's are often mistaken for wasps as they're much smaller

Lee. 07-05-2011 11:36 PM

A bee yes.. but a wasp? No ****ing way! I used to not be bothered by them until I put my tights on one morning without realising there was a massive wasp in them! :bawling:

Zippy 07-05-2011 11:36 PM

yeah why not

they don't just randomly sting anything they land on. They have to feel threatened.

Kerry 07-05-2011 11:36 PM

I've been stung by a wasp. Never a bee *touch wood*. The wasp flew up my jeans and stung my leg :bawling:

I'm afraid to say that you can develop allergies so even if you were stung once and are fine you may not be immune the next time :/

Jordan. 07-05-2011 11:39 PM

I once stood on a wasp and it got stuck between my toes. :bored::(

It deserved death.

I'd have happily removed it and set it free if it didn't act a bitch.

Maia 07-05-2011 11:46 PM

I know people are always like "Oh shh, bees don't sting unless they think they're in danger", but I still don't like them :p It's like moths - I don't care if they're harmless, I'm still scared of them :laugh:

And wasps definitely no. They're horrible little things -_-
