Why are some people never stung by bees?
This is because the body can build up a tolerance to bee venom. A little smoke around the hive helps to calm the bees and make them less active. When they’re calm and docile, bees are much less likely to sting.
Will a bee sting unprovoked?
Bees sting for the purpose of self defence or defence of the colony from predators. However, they do not sting for no reason. As an example, even though wasps can behave as predators, bees will often be seen foraging close to wasps, with neither insect attacking the other with intent to sting.
What to do if a bee chases you?
Remain calm and quietly move away until bees are out of sight. If bees attack, run away in a straight line and take shelter inside a car or building as soon as possible. If under attack, use your arms and hands or shirt to shield your face and eyes from stings. Do not try to fight the bees.
How do you know if a bee is chasing you?

- Bees are at their tamest when they are in a beard formation during a swarm.
- If being chased by a swarm of angry bees- run and don’t stop.
- Wear proper gear when inspecting beehives.
Can I pet a bumblebee?

Why does a bee keep landing on me?
