It depends on whether you are allergic to wasp/bee stings. It has been known for people to hyperventilate and die of anaphablactic shock if stung on the back of the throat. Not a. Nice way to go.

 

Suggest that in future you wear a Stig-style full face helmet at all times, preferably one fitted with a windscreen wash/wiper to remove the remains of insect squash. Alternatively you can install a speed limiter on your bike and set it to no more than 5mpg, which would reduce the risk by about 64%. Also fit the rear of your bike with a notice to that effect, or red and blue flashing lights to warn other road users. But that might attract moths so best wear the helmet too, especially at night.

If you did swallow a wasp I woul think it would take a while to die and would continue to sting in your digestive tract until it did so. Not something you would particularly want.

I Doubt it would get past your throat, your gag reflex would kick in unless you dont have onr in which case you'd have to ask how you lost it and why you arent a season ticket holder at lowerleague edinburgh fc

I am living proof it's survivable.

 

Get yourself a wee paper dustmask.

I think the OP should wear a niqab.

Conventional knowledge says you should instantly swallow the insect's natural predator. 

 

So for example if you swallowed a fly, perhaps you might die, then swallow a spider.

This is correct.

 

In fact this story backs up your post:

 

There was an old lady who swallowed a cow,

I don't know how she swallowed a cow;

She swallowed the cow to catch the dog,

She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,

She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,

She swallowed the bird to catch the spider,

She swallowed the spider to catch the fly;

I don't know why she swallowed a fly - Perhaps she'll die!

Was she the same lady who lived in a shoe? Or am I getting them mixed up?
