Answer:
Heya!
Explanation:
➡When an wasp bites, you feel pain and the spot becomes itchy.
➡The area becomes red and inflamed.
➡This is due to the formic acid present in the wasp's sting.
➡The effect of the acid can be neutralised by immediately rubbing the spot with a base like moist baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) or calamine solution (zinc oxide).
