Best Answer

A queen bee can sting, but she reserves her sting for other queens.

As she generally never leaves the hive, the only persons who could be stung by a queen would be the beekeepers, but in all the years I have been beekeeping I have never heard of anyone being stung by a queen.

Yes, Queen honeybees have a smooth stinger, and can sting many times. However, a queen will rarely sting a person, for several reasons. 1) her job is not to defend the hive (the workers do that, and do it well, indeed.) and 2) her abdomen is so full of eggs, that she has difficulty curving it down to implant the sting. The primary use of her sting is to kill other, rival queens in the hive.
