Can wasp lose stingers in clothing and can stinger continue to sting?

No, a wasp cannot lose its stinger. However, honeybees do lose their stinger (and life) when they sting a person. And their stinger continues to pump venom into the victim after it has become detached from the bee. The stinger of the wasp is not barbed and can be used again and again, while the honeybee stinger is barbed and remains in victim's skin.


Are honeybees harmful?

A sting is what makes a honeybee harmful, but they won't sting unless they are provoked. Only female honeybees have stingers, are workers, and take up most of the population in the hive. But when a worker honeybee stings someone, it's fatal for them: After a worker bee stings someone, their stinger is deeply attached to the person; then when the honeybee tries to fly away, their abdomen gets torn out and it kills them.
