What do you think of bees? (1 Viewer)

I couldn't really figure out how to title this post...

Usually during a summer I get stung like 3-4 times and today I got my first sting of the year! That is bcs my family has a few beehives and today I went with my mother to try and find the queen bee and mark it! (We didn't find it) We only managed to anger them so I was lucky to escape with only 1 sting...

I like bees generally though, even though I don't like honey that much I LOVE honeygum thogh! It is basically just the honey still inside the comb, so you chew on the comb full of honey to get the honey from it and then spit out the leftover wax.

I think bumblebees are cute! All fat and lazy, but honeybees...

I try my best to stay away from them because I believe my family is cursed. Every person in my family has been stung by a bee usually in their early childhood or teen years, and so far I'm the only one that hasn't been stung yet. If I can get to adulthood without a single sting, the curse will be broken for good. But I didn't know you took care of bees! That's so cool.

A be sting isn't that bad though... Like I said, I usually get a few a year and all it does is swell up for a few days and that is it. It doesn't even hurt after like 10 minutes!

Useful but irritating and I'd rather they didn't exist
Luckily never been stung by one

Bees and bumblebees? Love 'em! They're fuzzy and cute and they have an important job.

Wasps though? They can seriously just gtfo.

“According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyways. Because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.”

Wasps are bad yeah... But wasps aren't the worst! We have a nest of hornets near my house and when you see one of those you do NOT go near it!

Wasps hurt more than bees, but they are still harmless... Hornets on the other hand are actual devils!

I'll take your word for it, but bees will forever be a creature that I'll admire and fear from afar

With bees I am fine, but it's wasps that I am the most afraid of. When I was little like 5yrs old or smaller I got stung often in school because my shampoo probably smelled too good for them and attracted them. And now I have a fear of wasps and bees, but bees is less than wasps. I will however run away from both though if they get too close to me or follow me.

When I was about 5 or 6, there was a nest of wasps living under our deck. I got stung hard on my hip, and it swelled for days. I hate all bees now because of that.

dont honey bees die after they sting you... i feel like if one is willing to kill themselves just to sting you, you must of been a real dick lol

But Bees generally are fine...
Wasps are helpful too... but they seem like they have anger issues and are ready to attack you for no reason.
