Summer is upon us, and that means that your next picnic, patio lunch meeting, or casual wait at the bus stop could soon have some not-so-welcome guests. While a sting from an insect like a bee, wasp, or hornet can be unpleasant for anybody, for those with a potentially life-threatening allergy to insect stings, the presence of these unpredictable flying creatures can be anxiety provoking to say the least.

Planning ahead can help you enjoy your time outdoors and stay safe, even if you have an allergy to bee and wasp stings.
