What's With All the Bees? Sting Prevention and Remedies
We went camping last weekend and the bees were everywhere! This time of year they seem to be particularly annoying because they seem almost sluggish and way more persistent. I did some research to find out how to tell which bee is which, what to do when one lands on you, and what to do if you get stung. Click "To See More" below for more details on what I leanred.
Did you know that a wasp isn't the name of a particular bee, but rather a type of bee?
Find out what to do when a bee lands on you.
Bees see similar to a person who is color-blind.

Bees seldom bother us unless severly provoked. I suspect you were bothered by wasps and hornets which are meat eaters and find us juicy:)

I have a nest in the ground in my back yard when my friend was mowing last week she didn't know it was there until she got attacked by the bees or hornets not sure what type of bee makes it's nest underground? also have a nest on the innerside and on the top of the door frame it is small and the hornet or yellowjackets don 't seem to be bothered when I open the door and go in and out but I feel nervous! I don't want to destroy them so I just try and ignore them !

Yellow jackets! There a nest underground, you need to find the nest and pour gasoline until you know all are dead! The nest looks just like a hornet nest that hangs out of the trees!
