The barb that is on a bee's stinger is like a razor blade. This will cause the stinger to remain locked into the skin when projected.

What does the bee do to you when it stings you?

It punctures your skin with a barb and then pumps venom through the barb into your body which causes pain and localised swelling. If this is done by a honey bee, the bee cannot retrieve the barb and will die. A wasp however, can retrieve the barb and live to sting another day.


Is it possible for a bee's stinger to be activated a while after it is dead?

After a honey bee has stung you, the bee separates from the barb (stinger) and dies. The barb remains in your skin and continues to pump venom until you remove it.


Can be stinger stay in you when they sting you?

If you meant a 'bee stinger' - then yes. Unlike wasps, the sting of a bee has a tiny barb - when a bee stings something, the barb makes the sting stay put. This means the sting pulls out of the bees body - killing the bee in the process.

What do you do for a sting?

If you have been stung by a bee, remove the barb as quickly as possible because venom is still going into your body from the barb. Wasps don't leave the barb behind. You could then try an anti histamine, but for most people, the pain and swelling will subside after a few hours.
