The least 18 months. light installation could take some time, however, should keep as quiet as possible. Remove a bee stinger by flicking it off with the fingernail. A yellowjacket does not lose it's stinger and can sting you repeatedly. If tweezers are needed to remove the insect or stinger, be careful not to squeeze more venom into the bloodstream. . A cold substance can be held on the sting area to relieve the pain, but don't hold ice directly against the skin for an extended period of time, since there is danger of frostbite. Make a paste of meat tenderizer of baking soda and water, and apply it to the sting. This may reduce the swelling and itching. Anyone who has \ an unusual reaction to insect stings, should carry an emergency treatment kit and an emergency identity card any time they .go into an area where there might be members of the bee family.
