I have been bit by at least one,my worst worry since getting nailed and
having to bailout is baldfaced hornets and scorpions! I jumped near 15
feet to evade hornets once, got stung many times and could not take
it anymore so unhooked and jumped, my stinking knot was sappy and
did not want to cooperate it really sucked. Sprang my ankle and limp
ran to the truck and even though not allergic had to go get a shot
on that one was starting to pass out!
