Steve K7LXC mentioned meat tenderizer as a bee sting treatment. I have found a felt tip pen like device that does the same thing. It has an ammonia smell to it and really stops the pain and swelling.

On our FD operation I had a good demonstration of hanging wires in trees with a slingshot. I think it was called an Eze Hang available at HRO and others as well. Bill N7OU was able to shoot a small l
