What takes the stinging sensation out of a wasp sting?

Remove the stinger. Avoid using tweezers to do this, however, as it can squeeze more venom into the body. Instead, carefully scrape a blunt edge over the stinger, such as a credit card or the back of a plastic knife, which will encourage it to ping free. \n\nExperts recommend applying vinegar to the affected area to relieve itching, and popping a painkiller if necessary (though always follow advice on the packet when it comes to taking any medicine). \n\nAlso watch out for allergic reactions. Don't hesitate to seek medical treatment should it leave you feeling dizzy, cause swelling through the body and/or difficulty in breathing.

The lighter the scorpion, the more poisonous the sting. General, a healthy adult male who is stung will be fine. As for how long it takes to feel effect, It depends on the scorpion (What kind). Usually 1-3 hrs.

I can't see your images (it says I am forbidden/don't have permission to view the site), but from the description it sounds like the spider is likely a spiny orbweaver or spinybacked garden spider (Genus Gasteracantha).\n\nHere's some pictures of spiny orbweavers http://www.floridanature.org/species.asp?species=Gasteracantha_cancriformis\n\nhttp://bugguide.net/node/view/1982/bgpage\n\nThese species are harmless, even beneficial garden spiders that build typical spider webs to capture flying insects, including flies, mosquitoes and other nuisance species.\n\nThey do possess venom, but their venom is formulated for effectiveness against insects, and is not very potent against vertebrates, even if their bite was strong enough to break human skin (which it may not be).\n\nThey are not aggressive, and would only bite if the spider were injured or undergoing extreme harassment.\n\nUnless you were allergic to the toxin (unlikely, but remotely possible) the bite would probably be no worse than a mosquito bite, at worst it would be similar in pain and severity to a wasp sting.  Annoying, but certainly not life threatening.  The greatest danger would be infection caused by scratching the wound with dirty fingernails.

Lemon juice contains a lot of citric acid. \nWhenever you will put an acid on a cut it stings. If you have a cut in your skin you will also have damaged/exposed some free nerve endings which function as pain receptors in your skin and it will be possible for substances to come into direct contact with those nerves. \nIf a pain receptor comes into direct contact with an acid it will fire action potentials and consequently tell your brain there is pain. If the skin is intact, the nerve fiber will not come into direct contact with the acid, so no excitation and consequently no stinging. \nThere are a lot of other substances which can cause pain nerves to generate action potentials if they are exposed to it. If you don't know how nerve cells work, read that up in a book.

when the mosquito bites, their proboscis (the straw-like feeding device) penetrates the skin up to the subcutaneous layer of the skin beneath the dermis. When this happens, an inflammation occurs. The basophilic and mast cells (type of white blood cell) is stimulated to release HISTAMINE which contracts the smooth muscles. Since WBC uses glucose as source of energy, lactic acid is produced from glucose. Lactic acid plus the contraction of the smooth muscles plus interleukin produced by WBC gives you the ITCHINESS. The increased flow of blood in the area causes REDNESS and increase plasma concentration causes SWELLING. \n\nAnd thats how a mosquito bite itch.

It would have to be a slapped bum chewing a wasp.\n\nShe always looks like she've stood in something gross!!

The active ingredient in brown recules spider venom is thought to be sphingomyelinase D, which is an enzyme that degrades some lipids very important to the body.  There is not a proven natural way to inhibit sphingomyelinase D, so tissue death aound the site of the bite will occur and may continue for some time.\n\nSee a doctor ASAP.  (Like tonight)

it doesnt hurt cause your numb, but the sore left afterwards is more of a pain in the butt. No matter what-it will feel better than the wart- those things hurt

Well actually only some bees can sting people, and only sometimes do stinging bees die after they sting, contrary to popular belief. \n\nThere are many species of stingless bees. All the bees native to Central America are stingless. Fourteen of the 1600 Australian native bee species are stingless.\n\nThe stinger is a modified oviposter, or organ for laying eggs. Therefore, the male or drone bees are stingless. There are species of solitary bees where every female is fertile, that are also stingless bees. \n\nThe stinger was evolved for bee to bee combat, and only when bees sting mammals do the barbs in the bee get caught in the animal, and this causes some of the internal organs to be pulled out of the bee after stinging. Bees that sting other things besides mammals usually do not die. \n\nA close relative to bees, the social wasps, always have "unbarbed" stingers and can sting as often as they like (there are other wasps, like parasitic wasps, that have no stinger). Hornets, a term for some large wasp species, have unbarbed stingers, as do yellow jackets, which are small wasp species (actually, according to 7. they are not really unbarbed, but the barbs are short enough that the stinger can be pulled out without killing the insect). \n\nThere are even some bees that have unbarbed stingers, so they do not die after stinging people, and can sting repeatedly (see references 3, 5, 6). The queen bee usually has a barbless stinger so it also can sting repeatedly without dying.

I wold put backing soda and water..if the stinger is still in there that will bring it to the surface..\n\nOtherwise, there isn't really much else you can do..just make sure you aren't getting swollen..or having difficulities breathing cause if you are that means you are having an allergic reaction and you should get to the hospital fast..but if you had time to type in on here I'm guessing that you are okay..\n\nThe next day or two it will hurt..and then it will start to itch, just try not to scratch it..get some calamine or cortisone 10 for the itching and wait it out..

The one thing a spider is afriad of is attack form overhead (primarily wasps looking to lay eggs) You could see if your spider is more of less likely to treact to different colours/shapes suspended overhead.  Or even how it would react to a mirror.

An itch caused by an insect bite or an allergy whatever, is actually an inflammatory response of the body to an "allergen". The site of reaction swells up because certain cells in the blood of the person getting the bite, comes over to that site and secretes a few fluids and granules of allergic response called "histamines" and "kinins". They cause local swelling and irritation of the nerves near by, which is the cause for the itch. If you apply a "hypertonic" solution( which means a high concentration solution like that made of salt water) to the site of inflammation, the water from the swelling (oedema) gets absorbed into the concentrated solution and the swelling reduces in size. The itch may also disappear. But saliva being a comparatively dilute solution, is incapable of this osmotic action of salt water. So salt water may take away the itch, but saliva usually doesnt.

You'll get a sting or maybe a welt but that only hurts for a couple of minutes.

The facts are that:\n\nBee venom contains formic acid (also known as methanoic acid) but this is not the single active ingredient that causes the pain from a bee sting \nWasp stings are alkali but once again the venom has so many active ingredients that it is very unlikely that it is the alkali alone that is the single active ingredient that causes the pain
