Bumble bees?


Question:I heard that the big fuzzy bumble bees do not sting - does anyone know if this it true or not? Thanks!

Answers:
Sting: Bumble bees are normally docile and will only sting if provoked or if their nest is in danger. Unlike honey bees, bumble bees have a smooth stinger and can sting repeatedly. If you are stung, cooling the area with ice may be soothing.


Don't believe them! One Sunday afternoon, I sat on one in my husbands truck, yes they do sting. Yes, it is painful.
