WHEN BEES ATTACK
Bees generally leave people alone. But on rare occasions, such as their home being disturbed, bees will attack people. From Lifehacker.com, and author Beth Skwarecki, here are The Worst Ways to React to a Bee Attack:
– Don’t just stand there. Run.
– Don’t cover your face – you’ll have a hard time seeing where you’re going as you run away.
– Don’t jump into water. Whenever you come up to take a breath, the bees will attack your face. And you can inhale bees that can then sting you from the inside.
– Don’t play dead. Run.
* Bees are on to your shenanigans, and they hate if you think you can outsmart them.
* Picnicking outside? Have a garden hose handy.
* 1, 2, 3, 4… just four things. This is the worst top ten list ever. (And two of the four were “Run.”)
* This is some tip-top journalism, Lifehacker. Tomorrow, author Beth Skwarecki will explain what to do when you have a smudge on your glasses.
* I give this bee story a D-minus.
