I have two severe allergies: yellow jacket stings and carbaryl...

When I maybe 6-7 years old I got swarmed by yellow jackets. One sting will have me headed to the ER now.

When I was a teen I used some flea spray containing carbaryl on our dogs. Killed the fleas and sent me to the doctor.

Yep Elvis, I carry an "EpiPen" when i'm out and about during the summer time, along with a supply of Benadryl. I also carry an "extractor" which is very effective. I've used it on myself and the kids many times. sawyer.com/products/ex...-pump-kit/

I don't mind the nests I can see its the ground nests that get me every time. Been a few times that I have been cutting wood or clearing trails in the fall and woke the little buggers up, man are they cranky when they wake up. I am surprised that I am not allergic to them.
