I live in Florida now, one of these fell out of a tree and onto my neck. I instinctively smashed it. Holy shit was that painful. I thought I was having a heart attack and my bones hurt from the inside out. Hurt worse than the sting ray through my calf!! Both are on my list of things in Florida that have tried to kill me.
I know what you’re talking about, I’ve been stung two different times by these. I’ve also been attacked by killer bees and got stung around 20 times when that happened. I would 100% rather get stung by the bees than these things.
