Lol, It's been suggested to me before.
Fact or fiction?

I've never seen a jellyfish getting a golden shower after getting stung by a bee when out on a bike ride.

Crazy.


Back on planet earth, ensure whatever antihistamine you take is a non-drowsy one.

Yeah, I get them periodically under my helmet. Not fun. I usually get stung (not 'bitten') half-a-dozen times before I can get the helmet off. I keep a small antihistamine tablet taped to my bike, which will get me home before my eyes start to swell shut.

don't take the sting out with your fingers. it squeeze more poison in. Try an ID card for removing the sting.
