She's getting stung for some other reason. She's been stung by nearly every type of flying insect we have around here.
She got stung by the yellow jackets because she disturbed the bush that was above their nest. She was lucky she only got stung twice. Is a big next with a bunch of little buggers.
When she was 2 she moved some toys where a gaggle of red wasps had just started making a huge nest and was stung several times on the face. It's been downhill from there.
