Just taken a drink from a glass of water and failed to notice that there was a wasp on the rim of the glass. It F*****G well hurts.

Here and there

Wasp stings are alkali so neutralise it with acid, lemon juice or vinegar.

I did that once. Didn't realise that a wasp had flown into the can I was drinking from. it stung me on the inside of my lip. The pharmacist recommended bicarb of soda - it worked.

That would be for a bee, their sting is acidic and therefore needs an alkali to neutralise it. Wasp stings are definitely alkaline and need an acid to neutralise.

Whatever it was - it helped bring the sting out which was still in there. And it reduced the swelling.

Yeah, definitely a bee if the sting was still in there. The lemon juice or bicarbonate trick only works if you know what it was that stung you as one has an acidic sting and the other has an alkaline sting, if you get it the wrong way round you'll just make it worse.
