[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 770102, member: 6543"] well the best of both got me on sunday... I have enough copperheads show up in the barn that I am always on the lookout for them. Killed a copperhead that slithered under the bulls feet a couple of months ago as he was waiting for his evening ration. I was worming and giving booster shots to some calves early sunday morning and watching my footing in the dimly lit barn. All of a sudden the area where my neck meets my collar bone was on fire. It felt like a wasp..... I Smacked and clawed and brushed and ran all at one time. I felt something crunch when I smacked. But I never saw it as I brushed it off while running. I went back to look for the nest armed with a can of wd40 but could not find it. not even any wasps flying about. Later in the day I realized my neck still hurt. Went and looked in the truck mirror and I had five big welps. It is tuesday morning and two of them still hurt. don't know what it was, but wasp stings don't stick with me that long. I am still breathing and functioning so I don't think it was anything much worse whatever it was. Wasps got me on the back of the neck a week ago as I was helping a neighbor treat a sore foot. they were in a pipe at the top of the chute . WD40 cleaned them out. just recently discovered that I Have a nest of bell hornets under the workbench in my toolshed. [/QUOTE]
