Without any doubt, merthiolate.

No. When a honeybee stings it dies.
NOT ME! They hurt more!!! It all depends on your individual response to the different venom they inject you with. I've always been more leery of red wasps because it always hurts and swells more than black ones, but that is just me.

It is a fallacy that you can neutralise wasp venom with vinegar. It came from people believing wasp venom was alkaline: in fact it isn't, it is chemically pretty well neutral. Vinegar is known to have some soothing action for certain skin conditions, but I think with wasp stings a lot of it is a placebo effect.
No, nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide can not be used on bee stings. When combined nystatin and triamcinolone acetonide are used to treat fungal and yeast infections. Triamcinolone acetonide by itself can be used for bee stings.
There really is not much difference between Mercurochrome and Merthiolate. Both were used to dress wounds and contained alcohol and mercury. They were taken off the US market in 1998 because it was thought that they were linked to autism in children.
Both Mercurochrome and Merthiolate are topical antiseptic solutions used to prevent infection in minor cuts and scrapes. Mercurochrome contains mercury while Merthiolate contains thimerosal. Thimerosal is a mercury-based compound, but in a different form and concentration compared to the mercury in Mercurochrome.
None of the materials listed is a heavy metal, because most of them are compounds, and only elements are ever heavy metals. The only one on the list that does not contain a heavy metal is chlorine, which is a nonmetallic element.
thimerosal: a light-colored crystalline powder (trade name Merthiolate) used as a surgical antiseptic.

They are basically the same for minor cuts - either would be good. Iodine might sting more than mercurochrome but most people don't mind it.
Yes
You can buy it on Amazon.
Oddly yes. Mercurochrome is the brand name for merbromine (C20H8Br2HgNa2O6).
