Bee/wasp swarm

●Critical

⚠️ Check: Is the area safe for you to approach?

Run inside. Call 112. Scrape stingers out. Watch breathing.

❌

DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Do NOT swat at bees — this triggers more aggression.

❌

DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Do NOT pull stingers with tweezers — this squeezes the venom sac.

❌

DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Do NOT assume a non-allergic person is safe after 50+ stings.

DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Call 112. Say: "Multiple bee/wasp stings. Person has [number] stings. Breathing is [normal/difficult]."
DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Request ambulance if any breathing difficulty or more than 10 stings in a child.

More than 10 stings in an adult or any sting in a child with systemic symptoms needs emergency care.

DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Mass stings always need hospital evaluation — venom load can cause delayed organ problems.
DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Anyone with throat swelling or wheezing needs emergency anaphylaxis treatment.

Know your limits: DEVELOPMENT FIXTURE — Get to shelter first, then treat stings. Mass envenomation can cause shock even without allergy.
