Formic acid
Bee stings inject a toxin or venom called apitoxin, which is a bitter colourless liquid. Bee venom causes local inflammation and acts as an anticoagulant. It is not a poison.
While slighty acidic, it's not the acids in apitoxin (bee toxin) that stings. Apitoxin is, as with most biotoxins, a complex combination of mostly proteins. So, treatment with a base is not indicated for bee stings. Instead, try ethanol (ETOH/grain alcohol)
Bee stings do not usually leave scars.

Yes, bee stings often swell and then itch.
Bee stings and most wasp stings include formic acid, so the pH is acid. However, the portal of entry of the injected toxin is so small that an application of baking soda or the like is likely to be ineffective. The pH of bee venom is between 5.0 and 5.5. The pH of wasp venom is 6.8 to 6.9: it is almost neutral.
it is a special chemical inside the copper that removes bee stings

A Bee stings and taste its nectar
if you put vinegar on wasp stings it will help because wasp stings have alkali in it and vinegar is a weak acid but bee stings are different they are acidic so if you put toothpaste on it it will help (try not to get bee stings mixed up with wasp stings because it will hurt even more if you put toothpaste on wasp stings or vinegar on bee stings)
