A Bee sting is slightly acidic (pH 4.5 - 5.5) . It contains a mixture of amino acids namely methionine and cysteine which convey this slight acidity.

Bee stings are acidic, because of this they need to be neutralised by adding something that is alkaline to them (e.g. Bicarbonate of soda).

Just being careful with wording, it's the venom, not the stinger that is acidic.

Bee stings are acidic. Wasp stings are alkaline. Sometimes exam questions have asked what could be used to neutralise either. So Bicarbonate of soda on a bee sting and vinegar on a wasp sting. Hope that helps!
