Bees and wasps are annoying, aren't they? Read this article and you will learn what to do to avoid getting stung!
Steps
Step 1. Find out where they come from
If you find that they are concentrated in a specific place, try to stay away from it and try to figure out what attracts them - such as flowers, plants or sweet things.
Step 2. Don't dress in yellow
Bees are attracted to that color.
Step 3. Don't hit them
If they get close to you, stay still and they will surely leave.
Step 4. Try putting yourself in the bee's shoes
If you annoy her, she will probably sting you!
Step 5. Stay calm
Step 6. Dress well
If you are in an area with many bees, wear gloves (of all kinds), long pants, and long-sleeved shirts. If it's hot, it's better if they're a bit loose and don't try to take them off!
Step 7. Don't try to kill bees
Bees are dwindling in numbers, and if you kill them you will be doing harm to the environment. Also, bees make honey, which is delicious!
Step 8. Learn what bees are made of
From a distance they may look like wasps (which have a sting that hurts a lot more and don't die after stinging you) or any other black and yellow insect.
Advice
- Wasps can sting multiple times, unlike bees, so get away from them quickly and learn to tell them apart.
- A bee sting isn't that bad, unless you're allergic to it. They can hurt a little, though!
- Moving your arm up and down slowly will make the bee go away, but don't do it too quickly.
- If you light some incense or a candle, it will usually make the bee go away - but don't leave them on all night.
- Bees don't actually want to sting you. They die after doing it!
- Stay still and you will not be stung.
