mud dauber stings & other stings and things

up my ass Posts: 21,157
i did a search and found zero threads on bee (and others such as wasp, yellow jackets, hornets & such) stings
yesterday whilst minding to my own affairs driving up to iowa city hospital (windows down almost 100 degrees) pain, numbing and stings and shit goin on in my left shoulder/neck area. after about 10-15 minutes without feeling anything crawling on me i finally am tired of getting stung and feel the little shit through my shirt. i drag the fucker out and put him in my ashtray after examing the little guy, i thought he was dead. nope. he was alive, not well but alive.
i look him over holding him in my fingers then toss him out the window. i hope he lived but he probably did not. which makes me a bit sad. i have 5-8 welts/sting sites where the fucker nailed me. he was a baby mud dauber as he was less than an inch in length.
i researched the net earlier to find out exactly what it was that stung me. and this is the best possible match. solid black & about half frickin surly. yes he was ill tempered. and why not be pissy? here i am blasting down the highway as a stupid ass human with my bulky metal ass car and no regard for the tiniest of life from the nature world.
so he got me & got me good.

growing up our folks raised honeybees. i need not say anymore other than we were stung daily during summer months.
but i do wanna tell you a short quick story.
my brother dut recently informed me of another reason i am a disc..i mean dick.
apparently i made up a game when we were innocent wonderful children. here's how it goes.
you need 4 full on live honey bee boxes all kickin ass w/ honeybees. you need a bail of hay. you then lay the hay directly in front of the bee hives. then you decide to take a break lying yourself down on the hay allowing hundreds or thousands of honeybees to crawl all over you. brother dut says that he didn't wanna participate in my new inventive game but that i would tell him he was a chicken-shit. so he played. i personally do not remember this invention of mine whatsoever. however, i do remember girls in the hay over at the neighbor's barn we used to sneak into.

when i was a brand new baby we lived in a apple orchard just surrounded by hundreds of apple trees. in the middle of the night dad got up & went to the kitchen barefooted. that was one bad idea from what i'm told. he stepped on so many wasps it was ridiculous. the bottoms of his feet were just fucked. i guess he suffered for days or weeks everytime he got on his feet.for poetry through the ceiling.

shit, who could prepare for that? ouch.
My old man had no sympathy for those who got their feet hurt when the werent wearing shoes or some kind of protection.
Had a party once when we shared an apt. Poor old guy in his own house stepped on like three bottle caps walking barefoot in the living room. You can guess which side up._____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

Daubers are pretty cool damn beasts.....they capture spiders, paralyze them with their toxins, lay eggs inside the still living spiders and wall them suckers up in tombs of mud. When the eggs hatch, the larval stage daubers have a ready made spiders for their first meals. :twisted:All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a thousand enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.0

a couple nice sites on the study of wasps. the mud dauber is a type of wasp. a solitary wasp at that. and not ill-tempered like i thought. says they rarely attack, only when aggitated.

I awoke one Sunday morning with a pounding hangover and walked onto the back porch for a piss when I noticed once more the nest of what we call guinea wasps 'round here that had popped up on the porch earlier that week. Being the idiot I am i decided i'd just take the broom and knock the nest down, hopefully they would settles elsewhere besides right above the back door.
Well my swing didn't quite hit the mark and them lil fuckers flew all over my ass, popping me repeatedly as i fled. I do believe it was 15 stings that were counted that day - on my face, neck, back, arms. Won't do that again.All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all0 -

never heard of guinea wasps (where you located?)
i will look them up on the net
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&cp=1 ... 2QX6yITBBQ
google images of guinea wasps... says they are also known as paper wasps. these are wasps from around here. they make their home out of some kinda paper like shit. nasty sting and very ill-tempered when fucked with.
your story reminds me of my dad & his buddy trying to get a hornets nest out of a tree.
they got the shit stung out of them
frickin bald-faced hornets up the frickin wazoo
they got hit someting like you did
it was ruthless
hornet nests go for nice money @ certain country taverns over here in the sticks.
not sayin that's what they were gonna do with it but who knows
ya always see hornet nests hanging from a branch above the bar at your finer country ass barsfor poetry through the ceiling. ISBN: 1 4241 8840 7

Wait...you were in the car, driving, getting stung...and didn't freak the fuck out?
I'm terrified of bees! Never been stung though.
I had a near-accident years ago because a bee flew in my car. I'm sure I looked hilarious to passers-by
We also had a wasp nest in the air vent on our balcony. One calm, lovely and baked Sunday morning, I'm sitting on the floor reading the paper when I see a bee inside the screen. Then another...then another. Thank god Danny was able to calmly get them out while my freaked-out ass did the scaredy-cat hoparound.
I respect them, for sure. Tough little fuckers, they are.0 -

it didn't hurt super bad just a bit. been stung a lot so it was a mild event actually compared to other times.hedonist wrote:Wait...you were in the car, driving, getting stung...and didn't freak the fuck out?

I respect them, for sure. Tough little fuckers, they are.
for instance when we were picking up the yard (sticks & things) preparing to mow & stuff. beside the garage was a pipe we lauched bottle rockets with. i bent down to pick it up and i did notice the wasps buzzing around in the area right where i was working. i bent down & was grabbing the pipe when out of nowhere a sheer volcano erupted inside my left hand's pinky finger. it was the most excruciating fiery injection i have ever felt in my life. it hurt so fucking bad it drove me mad.
my pinky grew larger than my thumb and black and cracked apart and oozing some nasty ass yellow pus junk. dad told me one day i had better go get my pinky amputated before some serious infection really screws me up. i refused his suggestion and didn't even see the doc probably cause i was scared they'd hack it off.
in 6-8 weeks it was about healed. those were probably the most painful weeks of my lifefor poetry through the ceiling. ISBN: 1 4241 8840 7
