Mowing the yard and my neck started burning. Kept mowing, figured it was a wasp sting. Finally couldn't take it anymore and found an asp in my shirt. Took a shower and put some bebadryl cream on. Stings like nothing I've ever felt. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2022/11/full-38597-370508-20221117_112200.jpg)
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

He was rolling around in my shirt for about 30 minutes before I'd had enough. Feels like I got branded.

Adolph's meat tenderizer make a paste with vinegar supposed to kill the sting almost immediately

Sorry to hear it...those things are awful. Wife and I were RV-ing with another couple years ago when the other guy's wife got hit on the leg by one. She ended up passing out & we had to rush her to the hospital. They gave her fluids, steroids, & anti-allergy meds to get her over it.

I had one drop down onto a chair I was sitting in and when I leaned back in the chair, it nailed me in the base of my skull. Hurt like a mother.
Thanks,
Rich

Got tagged when I was a kid. They do sting. Haven't seen one in a long time. They used to recommend a baking soda paste.

Those things are terrible. The only thing that comes close in my experience is a Velvet Ant, but the asp has it edged out by a little.

Burn is gone but muscle pain persists. I guess I'll live.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Burns like a mother and then a blister. About like a jelly fish. Tobacco spit will give some relief.

Had one in the arm of an outdoor chair and rested my forearm on it. I got dizzy and thought I was going to faint, that thing sucked.

I guess that was what popped me on the neck when I was mowing under some low hanging limbs. Hurt really bad. Swelled up as a ridge about the size of a finger. It was a hairy looking caterpillar. Hard to forget that sting.

If you start to have any breathing issues get to an ER.

When we were kids, my brother had one fall on his back out of a tree. And we were always shirtless. The way he was screaming you’d have thought he was on fire.
