No. Unlike bees, hornets and wasps are able to withdraw their stingers after stinging. This makes it easier to treat the wound, but also that a single creature can sting multiple times.

Do hornets die after a sting?

Why do bees die then they sting?

I wonder the same thing. Hornets and Wasps don't die when they sting, but the normal Honeybee does. Well, if you ever get stung by a bee, be happy they die after. It hurts when you get stung.

OK, after many months of researching the only reason is because their stinger is connected to their inner organs, When they sting someone the organs get pulled out. And they die, the half-witted little fellows.
