Carry capsules of activated charcoal.  If applied immediately after on stings it really ducks the poison out.  Nothing better IME.

If you're hunting the wet side where the banana slug dwells, and, happen to have one in your pocket (grin) they work great for numbing bee stings and those unfortunate stinging nettle encounters. Make sure you wear gloves when you handle them as the numbing slime is tough to get off.

Forget commercial traps.  Cut the tapered top off a water bottle, take the cap off and turn it upside down.  Tape it in place after putting your bait (meat has worked the best for me with a little water) and you have a bee killing machine for cheap.

I don't follow this.  Picture, please.
