There are pain scales which compare the varying pain levels of sting. Here are two for your reading pleasure. I'd expect a wasp to fall in the same category as the rest of the bees unless it's a paper wasp which seems to consistently fall higher on the scale. Even better- they sting multiple times. I've had yellow-jacket and bee stings. They both hurt like heck. Hubby had a wasp fly up his shirt and stung him 6 times. He swore a lot and hopped around a bit until he got rid of it, but survived. It hurts, you won't like it, but you will survive if you encounter them. Just in case you have an undiscovered allergy- a kit with an Epipen Injection not a bad idea. Usually the first sting won't do it but subsequent stings can. Ice cubes seem to be helping at the moment to. Carry a spray bottle with a soap and water and baking soda mixture and it's supposed to kill them or ward them off. Don't mess with them, and they won't mess with you. Don't wear loose clothing as they will get inside it and you'll get stung all over.
No, the sting is smooth so can easily be withdrawn.
Yes. They can sting if provoked but rarely will as they are not aggressive to people or pets as other wasps are. Their stinger is used for immobilizing it's prey which is primarily the black widow spider. See the related link for more information.
Yes, within their stingers, bee have tiny poison sacks. These poisons are mainly what causes a bee sting to hurt so much.

It is like a wasp or a bee. It could sting you and it is much worse than one of the other bugs that sting you. BE CAREFUL! THEIR NESTS LOOK KIND OF LIKE DIAMOND SHAPED. THEY HAVE A HOLE AT THE BOTTOM. . .a bee with a longer stinger
i would say about 7-9 on a scale of 1-10. but a wasp sting is like, an 11! i screamed when i got stung by a wasp!!, i dont usually scream. -- For me, maybe 4-5 on a scale of 1-10. A wasp is probably a 8 for me, and I have a high tolerance pain! I got a bee sting when I was around 9 and it didn't hurt much.
Yes! They don't hurt as much.
Horseflies don't sting, they bite. They use their jaws to bite a hole in the skin and then lick up the blood as it streams out. That is why they hurt so much.
Penicillin injections certainly sting, the same as for humans.
Yes, but not very much. A bee sting hurts more.
easy: on a scale of one to ten, how much does it hurt??
No, the sting is smooth so can easily be withdrawn.
No, you dont. You get it inyour gum below or above your teeth. It dusnt hurt very much but it may sting
Going by the nose pierce, on a scale of 1 to 10 the lips will also hurt you to about 8.5.
