bumblebee sting
Striped pollinator's poke
A bumblebee sting is the wound or pain caused when a bumblebee uses its stinger.
Unlike honeybees, bumblebees can sting multiple times.
The sting is typically less painful than a wasp's but causes localized swelling and discomfort: She got a bumblebee sting while gardening.
For most people, bumblebee stings are minor irritants, though allergic reactions can be serious.
