ok i have a lot of bees in my back yard every summer. i can't get rid of them, anyway i got stung last summer and the stinger was stuck in my back, it hurt so bad until somone got the stinger out, then it started feeling better. but i've heard from some people that your suposed to leave the stinger in and other's say take it out. i was hurting so bad there was no way i could leave it in. does anyone know what your suposed to do.
and what is the best way to get rid of the bees and wasps in my yard. they have nests in the cracks of the bricks in the house and shed but i spray in there and they have a million other places to get in and out. when i spray one hole they rush out another one.

"The advice should be changed to simply emphasize that the sting should be removed, and as quickly as possible."

The sting keeps on pumping venom when it's there basically and also acts as a homing beacon for other beacons, so best advise is to take it out as fast as possible.
