Add another "Ouch" to your list ! I stepped on a batch one time. Thought I got into some multi floral sticker bushes until I looked down and saw them stinging me thru my blue jeans.

One hot October day while scouting deer sign, I managed to jump a small creek and land right on a nest. I was wearing thin camo coveralls and hundreds got inside them. I ran forever but they just kept stinging me. Finally got out of the coveralls to get a break. I had well over 100 stings. Since I was now in just my boots and underwear, I went back to get the coveralls which were hundreds of yards from the origional encounter. I got stung three or four times trying to get them. 30 minutes later I tried again with same result. Eventually I hiked out and drove home in my underwear. I was sick several days.

I almost found a bald faced hornet nest today.
Thankfully a single warrior drone warned me off!
They are aggressive anyway, but they go bananas when you near their nest.
No sting, but I got lite back the way I came.

Try putting a dab of mud on each sting and leave it there for a day or so
