Thanks for this!
I just finished a two-day interior cutout where I had to remove part of a plaster ceiling that was 12 feet high. I did it all from a ladder and by the end of the first day, my back was in spasm from all the contortions and work required to expose the colony. I complained to my wife about the pain and she promptly suggested I take an Advil before continuing the next morning. I normally do not react to stings and the first day I got stung many times with no reaction. The second day after the morning Advil I got stung a few times and I got some local swelling and persistent pain which I noted as very unusual. Today I got stung again and I'm back to no reaction.
