What is the difference between Spheksophobia and Melissophobia?

Spheksophobia specifically refers to the fear of wasps, while Melissophobia is the fear of bees. Although both phobias involve an intense fear of stinging insects, they are distinct fears. People with Spheksophobia fear wasps and may experience anxiety and panic when encountering them, while individuals with Melissophobia have a fear of bees. The triggers, specific symptoms, and underlying causes may vary between the two phobias. However, some individuals may experience a general fear of both wasps and bees, or their fear may extend to all stinging insects. It is important to seek professional guidance for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment for specific phobias.
