Yes, there are several remedies for a wasp sting. First, clean the area with soap and water to reduce the risk of infection. Applying a cold compress can help alleviate swelling and pain, while over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen can provide additional relief. For allergic reactions, antihistamines may be beneficial, and if symptoms worsen, seek medical attention immediately.

"Wasp" is not a proper noun; it is a common noun that refers to a type of insect belonging to the order Hymenoptera. Proper nouns name specific people, places, or organizations and are usually capitalized, such as "Wasp" when referring to a specific brand or title. In general usage, "wasp" is lowercase and describes any member of the wasp family.

With wasp and bee stings the venom has been injected under the surface of the skin. There is nothing you can put on the surface of the skin that will neutralise the venom.

None that work.
Unfortunately there are no home remedies for this complaint. You will need to see your vet about this.
