Atlanta Exterminators of Team Pest USA Explain How to Respond to a Bee Sting

    NORCROSS, GA, August 15, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Team Pest USA wants to make sure you're ready for the little surprises that outdoor activity can throw at you. For most people, a bee sting is an unpleasant but bearable rite of passage of childhood, but for those who are allergic to bee stings, the venom can be deadly.

Brandon Pelfrey, owner of Team Pest USA, says, "Most people know if they're family members have a bee allergy, but what about your friends or your child's friends? Keeping an epi-pen in your home and car first aid kits can help prevent a tragedy."

After a bee sting, pull the stinger from the skin with tweezers and then clean the wound. For those without an allergy, treat the area with a topical anti-itch medication. People with an allergy should be injected with an epi-pen and then seek medical attention.

For those without an allergy, a makeshift paste of baking soda and water can reduce the inflammation of a sting and help prevent itching.

Once the care of injured is complete, consider calling your reliable Atlanta exterminators at Team Pest USA. People may not always think of bees when they think about pest control in Atlanta, but the experts at Team Pest USA are ready to track down the hive and help you prevent future bee stings.

A bee sting doesn't have to end poorly, if you're prepared. Better yet, it doesn't have to happen at all. The Atlanta pest control experts at Team Pest USA can help make sure it doesn't.
