Bees, even the new and nasty, African variety, do present one advantage over wasps and hornets. Bees can only sting you once. Do, if you get bit, scrape the stinger off your body like you'd scrape mortar off a brick. If you squeeze it, you'll pump in more bee venom. Bumble bees seem a particularly good bait if you can get them on a size 12 hook without being stunk.
Allergic reactions can be life threatening.
Since all above sting, fresh corpses are the choice if available in sufficient quantity via a back porch bug bomb, or your local beekeeper who has a foul brood problem. You really need enough to make your own hatch, or you're better off with easier to handle choices. If you except moths with ten inch wingspans from the Philippines, the ultimate bug bait may live in New Guinea. Locals fish the Eurcanthra lato, a big beetle, sans hooks. Just tie a thread to its thorny leg and it acts as its own hook and bait.
