  • Head to a safe indoor location.
  • Gently remove the stinger if it’s still in the skin by using a flat object like a fingernail or credit card. Do not use an instrument that could pinch the stinger such as pliers since this will increase the amount of venom transferred from the stinger.
  • Apply a cold compress to help with the pain and swelling.
  • If you’ve been stung multiple times and /or are noticing unexpected physiological symptoms such as burning, excessive swelling, body rash, difficulty breathing, weakness, nausea or shock then seek immediate medical attention!
  • Call poison control 1-800-222-1222 they will monitor every hour on the hour.
