Avoid their food and queen if you see a wasp nest; if they feel threatened, they will sting you. So if you see wasp nests on your property, call the critter guy so they will remove them properly without getting stung by wasps
yes wasp stings are alkali but bee stings are acidic
Wasp stings are acidic in nature. The venom injected by wasps is mostly alkaline in pH, which can cause pain, redness, and swelling at the sting site.
Bee and wasp stings are acidic in nature, which is why they cause pain and inflammation when injected into the skin. Alkaline substances, such as household cleaners, can help neutralize the acidity of the venom and provide relief. It's important to seek medical attention if stung multiple times or have a severe allergic reaction.
It is widely supposed that by neutralising the alkali nature of a wasp sting with an acid such as vinegar the pain will disappear. In fact this perfect neutralisation of a tiny amount of venom under the skin with an indeterminate amount of unknown concentration vinegar is very unlikely to be achieved. The application of vinegar is more likely to be a placebo than a genuine treatment or remedy and this is confirmed by numerous other recommended remedies. These include copper coins, papaya, meat tenderizer, grass as well as many other proposed substances. Vinegar on wasp stings, like bicarbonate of soda on bee stings, is something of an old wives tale.
Wasp venom has a pH of 6.8 to 6.9, so is pretty well neutral.

Wasp stings contain: hyaluronidase, histamine, phospholipase A, acetylcholine.
Wasp stings contain venom composed of various proteins and peptides. The main components are histamine, acetylcholine, and serotonin, which cause pain, inflammation, and other allergic reactions. The venom is injected into the skin through the stinger when a wasp stings.
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)
