They are fairly common up here at Camp Little Ridge. I keep an eye out when I'm walking around barefoot in the house. When they sting you on the soft white middle part of your foot it hurts pretty bad. About like a yellow jacket.
If you get stung by one I do the same thing I do for a yellow jacket sting...
Cut a potato in half and put the cut side on the sting and hold it there for about 5 minutes. It feels better immediately, but it also seems to minimize the effects hours and days later.
I usally cuss, it does the same thing as the potato! Lol
