Reasons why wasps sting
The major reason wasps’ sting is because they feel threatened by humans. It is their defense mechanism against human. There are two kinds of stings:
Protection: Just like other animals, a female wasp wants to protect herself and her home from getting attacked, so she stings in defense.
Agitation: If a wasp gets annoyed because of the consistent waving of hands or newspaper, they may get agitated, feel threatened and bite.
What does a wasp sting look like?
When you get stung, it will be very painful, but you will not see much of it on the skin. You may notice a small puncture wound along with a dot of blood. However, after some time, the area will turn red and swell.
When the raised welt appears, you will notice a small white mark at the center. It is the place where stinger penetrated your skin.
The wounded area will be painful to touch and will get swollen. Allergic reaction may lead to severe swelling and other signs which can be dangerous.
