– Hornets are up to 2.2 inches [in (5.5 cm)] long – not easy to swallow, but still possible;
– Hornets have two wings, antennae, six legs, and big, dark eyes;
– A hornet sting gives out less venom than a bee sting, but you'll feel it more when a hornet stings you because its venom contains more of a chemical acetylcholine;
– If a hornet stings you in your throat or mouth, the impact spot and the surrounding area will probably swell up;
– New young queens are the only hornets in the hive that survive – together with their eggs. They protect the eggs in relatively safe areas such as inside human dwellings or under tree bark;
– Bees are distant cousins of wasps and hornets;
– Bees are not predators; they're vegetarians that mostly feed on flowers;
– The queen can live up to five years, and, at the peak of its strength, it can lay up to 2,000 eggs per day;
– Bees are also pretty good dancers. This is the way they communicate with each other;
– Bees buzz when they fly because they don't flap their wings directly;
– A bee beats its wings at approximately 200 Hz or 200 times per second. Animation is created by Bright Side.
