just remember if it is the copper,pennies made after 1983 are 97.5% zinc with just a thin copper coating.just a useless fact but Copper pennies weigh 3.11 grams, whereas the zinc pennies weigh only 2.5 grams

It's not a penny, it's a dime.

Cuz you need to have more cents than to tape a penny to a bee sting. Good grief... \:D


If you can find some meat tenderizer in your spice cabinet and make a bit of a paste, it helps break down the enzymes in the venom.

Meat tenderizer works best. Make a paste and slather it on. Instant relief.

Never tried the penny, but I can vouch for the tobacco. It hasn't seemed to matter what kind, pipe, cigarette, cigar, etc.

I never heard of the penny thing. I dont smoke, but I keep cigarettes in the truck for bee stings. (Wet the tobacco and put it on the sting)

Ice and benedryl. But that's only for yellow jackets or red wasps. That's my home remedy.

As for honeybees, their stings aren't as bad in my opinion.

I have always used meat tenderizer, but if I'm out in the woods then it is tobacco.
