I recently found out I’m allergic to bee stings. My neighbor is a beekeeper. How can I steer clear of a sting

Jennifer S asked:


One of my brothers said I need to buy a slingshot and fling rocks and small pebbles at the hives to scare away the bees. My older brother suggested I try talking to one of the workers and see if we can work out some sort of arrangement to marry into the colony.

What should I do?

    My neighbor also keeps bees. The best way to avoid getting stung is to 1. Stay at least 5-10 feet away from the hives 2. When you are driving by keep your windows up. 3. Talk to your neighbor about keep in his hies in a protective casing (such as nets.) I hope this helps. I did this haven’t got stung once.

    What are the odds of that? I personally would move, you could die from bee stings, and that doesn’t seem worth it to me. I would move and i am not even allergic to them.

    A more useful solution would be to have desensitising injections in case of a sting.
