I have never in my life been stung by a bee or wasp-but my poor 2 y/o got stung tonite!! Bless her heart
I was keeping a very close eye on it to make sure she didnt have an allergic reaction, and thankfully she didnt, it was very red though. We put baking soda on it to get the sting out. I felt so sorry for her though......

I don't know. I never tried it out. I heard a horticulture professor talking about it on National Public Radio.

Ouch!! I know how she feels! When I was younger (about 11 ish) I was leaning over the lip of our pool (from outside the pool) to touch the water. Unbenownst to me there was a wasps nest right below the lip which I stirred up. I got stung too many times to count - all on my chest and stomach cause I had my bathing suit on. It was awful! To this day I freak whenever a bee or wasp comes near me. I'm not allergic, but I do freak. My friends think it's funny how I just get totally out of control and start screaming - but after that experience - I don't think it's so funny

At least your little one will be too young to remember and won't have any fears like me. It's also good to hear your daughter is not allergic! That is so dangerous!

I had on a longish maternity dress once and I walked by a hornets nest. A few flew up my dress stung me I don't know ho many times. I was leaving my grandmothers house at the time. I came running back into her house ripped my dress off right in her kitchen because they where still up under the dress stinging me on the back and shoulders. It sure hurts.
Meat tenderizer put on as a paste takes the sting out also.
