Bee venom is acidic. Make a paste with baking soda and water and apply it to the sting. Wasps have an alkali venom so anything acidic will help wasp stings.

The best thing for a bee sting/bite, is the bottom of the onion,the part that makes people cry. Don't use tweezers to get the stinger out, use hard plastic, like a credit card. Using tweezers you squeeze venom into the body. This is an old hunters remedy from my grandpa.

Ice & Honey work great.
Immediately after getting stung all I had available was ice. It quickly took away pain and swelling. There was some mild on and off pain after coldness from the ice wore off.
That night I put honey on a large bandaid (sealed on all 4 sides to prevent it from leaking out). Honey was soothing and took away pain. Continued to use honey the next day to prevent pain.

Use vinegar on bug bits to relieve the itching and swelling. Also, put some in a dish to keep wasp away.

For a bee sting, I learned this from a honey bee family, apply honey directly to the sting. It will stop hurting immediately. The honey counteracts the poison in the sting.

i am learning first aid and i found out that after you get stung by a bee take something like a credit card a kind of scop at it to get the stinger out. If you dont the stinger will inject poison into you and DON'T try to use tweezers because it injects more poison!

Make a paste of either meat tenderizer and water or baking soda and water and apply to the sting site. Make sure you have removed the stinger (scrape it with either a fingernail or a credit card, don't use tweezers as it only puts more of the bee's venom into your body). Keep the area elevated (above your heart) this keeps circulation going, helps it heal faster, and keeps the swelling down. There are also some over the counter medications that work well.
