Dadda Sting Pain Index
Welcome to the world of painful insect stings. Let me take you on a journey through the unknown realm of insects and the space beyond pain and madness.
About me
Hi! My name is Matteo Dadda and I like to get stung by insects. This website was created as a joke by my stupid friends, but now getting stung actually turned into a sadistic hobby of mine. In honor of Justin O. Schmidt, I also rate how painful the stings are on a scale from 1-4 (Schmidt Sting Pain Index). However, I think that most of the pain ratings Schmidt gave are too high… My biggest dream would be to get stung by a bullet ant and a tarantula hawk at the same time. Anyway, please enjoy this website!
