preventative measures reinforced by pain
Discussion
I almost wore shorts and this would have been way worse. Thank goodness I at least had pants on to prevent some of them.
yep, avoid a swarm where it can even be deadly. no allergies i hope!
Thankfully I don't have any allergies or this probably would have been bad for me. I was riding my mower on my new property and must have ran over a ground nest and of course the mower tires got stuck at the worst time and left me sitting there in a swarm of them.
Sounds like wasp or hornets, most likely not bees.
I knew it wasn't wasps because I've been familiar with those in my past. It very well could have been hornets based on what I'm seeing on google. I always thought hornets were bigger but these guys matched what I'm seeing there.
