[@21308] I mean, as a kid I knew they could sting me but I just let them crawl on me. My family had a huge hive in one of the old buildings on our orchard so I was always around them. As I got older I was more scared of them because I found out that most my family is allergic. In highschool I finally got stung because I thought a spider landed in my hair and I freaked which is bad with bees. It sting me and my finger swelled and turned slightly purple. It took days for the swelling to go down, weeks for the color to go to normal and I had a red dot on where it stung me for like a month. I guess the same thing happened to my uncle and the second time he was stung he couldn't breath
