Gumout carb spray, kills any bug you hit with it. Used it to eradicate hornet nests. You will want a can in each hand for that one if it’s a big nest, and they are on top of the nest. Fair warning...

I was once stung by a cow killer ant. During the Summer I always went barefoot.

It was bad, a little worse than a wasp but thankfully not as bad as I had thought.

We were always told never to touch caterpillars. Now I know why.

In southeast Texas, it was called an asp in the ‘60s.

Accidentally brushed one a few months ago and it felt as though I was poked with a burning coal. Oh so painful and for days my hand looked like a blown up latex glove. Beware of this booger!

In Spain we have processionary caterpillars that can kill pets and make small children seriously ill.

Got stung by one of those bad boys about ten years ago. He was on the arm rest of a lawn chair. I didn’t see him and I set my arm on him when I sat down.

About like a bee sting, except that is was sore for days afterward.
