What should be an immediate measure for a bee sting?

Hello, yesterday I spotted a beehive in the backyard of our farmhouse. I am worried about what will I do if a bee stings anyone in my house. Can anyone what should I do in case of a bee sting? What should be an immediate measure for a bee sting?

@foe Hello, it can happen. The first thing to do is to get the stinger out quickly. The longer the stinger stays in the skin, the more venom it releases, adding to the person’s pain and swelling. Never use tweezers to remove a stinger, as squeezing it can cause more venom to release into your skin. Wash the sting with soap and water. Apply a cold pack to reduce swelling. Beesting doesn’t cause any reaction but it is better to take the help of a doctor. If it happens please talk to your doctor.
