I feel your PAIN and ITCH. Almost the same thing happened to me last summer. I was mowing the lawn with a push mower. All of a sudden I felt stinging sensation on the back of my upper thigh. I mowed over a nest of yellow jackets that live in the ground. Now they're diving for me, I'm slapping them off my legs, swinging my arms around my face so I don't get stung there. Thought about tearing my shorts off but didn't want to scare the neighbors. I ended up getting stung about 30 times all over my legs and arms. I'm kind of paranoid now whenever I mow the lawn. I never want to have another close encounter with a nest of bees.
