Hornets Stings - A hornet's sting is painful to humans, but the sting toxicity varies greatly by hornet species. Some deliver just a typical insect sting, while others are among the most venomous known insects.[1] Allergic reactions, fatal in severe cases, can occur; an individual suffering from anaphylactic shock may die unless treated immediately via epinephrine ("adrenaline") injection using a device such as an EpiPen, with prompt followup treatment in a hospital. European hornet sting in itself is not fatal except sometimes to allergic victims. Non-European hornet sting in itself is not fatal except sometimes to allergic victims. multiple stings (an entire nest) can be fatal due to highly toxic species-specific additions in the venom. from the Asian giant hornet (Vespa mandarinia japonica) is the most venomous known (per sting). All hornet stings are an allergen for people with an allergy to wasp venom. those allergic to wasp venom are not necessarily allergic to bee venom as they contain different chemicals. are more painful than a typical wasp's due to a large amount (5%) of acetylcholine. As in all stinging wasps, hornets can sting multiple times; they do not die after stinging a human as is typical for a worker honey bee, as a hornet's sting is not barbed (the honey bee stinger has evolved for defending the nest against vertebrates/mammals). They can also bite and sting at the same time. Alarm escalation - Hornets, like many social wasps, can mobilize the entire nest to sting in defense, which is highly dangerous to humans. The hornet alarm pheromone is used to raise alarm of nest attack and to identify prey, such as bees.[5] It is not advisable to kill a hornet anywhere near a nest, as the distress signal can trigger the entire nest to attack. Materials that come in contact with pheromone, such as clothes, skin, dead prey, or hornets, must be removed from the vicinity of the hornets nest. Perfumes and other volatile chemicals can be falsely identified as pheromone by the hornets and trigger an attack.
