No the stinger is not left in the skin from Wasps or Hornets. They just sting you and pull it out. Only Honey Bees leave a stinger in you. My family are beekeepers so I have been stung by many bees but since honey bees die when they loose their stinger they don't sting unless they feel threatened.

How do you get a bee needle out?
The best way to get a bee stinger out without squeezing more venom into your skin is to use your fingernails. Gently scrape along your skin in the direction of the poison sac (the rounded bit at the non-pointy end of the stinger). Try not to press down on the sac because that will just pump more venom in. If you tug gently, the stinger will pop back out of your skin. You can then wash the area. If it hurts a lot, you can take some Tylenol or Advil, and can also take some Benadryl for the swelling and itching.

How can you tell if wasp stinger is still in?
If the sting is from a wasp, the stinger will not be left behind. A wasp's stinger is firmly attached to its body and is smooth so it can easily be withdrawn. A honey bee's sting is barbed, and is less firmly attached to its body, so when a bee stings then pulls away the sting can be left behind. It will be seen as a small (about 2mm) pale-coloured mass at the site of the sting. This should be scraped out as quickly as possible because it can continue to inject venom for up to two minutes after the bee has gone.
Why do bees die after they sting people?
If it is a good sting, the venom sac will remain with the stinger. If the bee keeps the stinger, he will live. While some bee species, like the honey bee can only sting once before dying; some bees species, like the bumblebee, can sting multiple times and still live. this is because the honey bee stinger is barbed and tears off whie stinging, while the bumblebee has a smooth stinger that does not tear off while stinging.
