To stop the sting and swelling, look in your yard for the plant plantain, pick a small hand full, crush it in your fingers or chew on it a second to break the surface and offer wetness, and put the crushed leaves on the sting for 15 minutes.

Good Post. I like to use toothpaste to help with the ease of the after pain associated with a bee sting.

I use a plaster of baking soda on the sting site to reduce swelling and pain. It also helps with the itch that sometimes accompanies it.

Easier said than done. I remember a time I had about 40 stingers in my legs. The bees weren't too happy and neither was I!
