Wasps have smooth, non-barbed stingers. Therefore, a wasp is able to withdraw the stinger from the skin and continue to sting. A wasp sting does not result in a stinger being left behind in the skin. Each sting injects venom into the skin that can create a variety of symptoms on the skin and in the rest of the body.
