Do blue bottle stings hurt more than jellyfish stings?

No, blue bottle stings and jellyfish stings are often compared, but blue bottle stings are generally not considered to be more painful than jellyfish stings. The severity of a sting can vary depending on the species of jellyfish or blue bottle involved, as well as individual sensitivity. Some jellyfish species, such as the box jellyfish, have venom that can cause serious injuries and even be fatal. Blue bottles, on the other hand, typically cause mild to moderate pain and discomfort. Their venom is not as potent as that of some jellyfish species, and the stings usually resolve on their own within a few days.
