In process of digging up a wild O. glabrifrons, i had it by its tail (large female), and it managed to sting me on my ring finger.
Dull throbbing pain started at the tip of my finger near the sting, then over 5 minutes it moved down my finger. The pain was noticeable, but not intense. 1-2 hours later my forearm ached for another hour. Other than that nothing bad.
