Disclosed is an Africanize honey bee protective bag for temporary emergency protection of a person against stinging attack by a swarm of bees. A lightweight, compact, single-use, flexible plastic upper body protective garment is carried by a user when travelling in bee infested areas. The Africanize honey bee protective bag comprises a generally rectangular transparent plastic bag for enclosing the upper body of the user. The plastic bag comprises a plastic sheet folded to form a closed top and sealed along each edge to define an open bottom having a circumference adapted to fit over the shoulders of the user. A circular opening is formed through one side of the bag proximal the closed top thereof wherethrough breathing air for the user may flow. A discoid mesh screen is attached to the bag such to cover the circular opening for preventing bees from entering the bag while simultaneously allowing breathing air to pass freely through. A hem having an elastic band inside is provided along the circumference of the bottom. The elastic band has a circumference substantially smaller than the circumference of the open bottom whereby the open bottom is drawn together for tightly encircling the waist of the user to further prevent entry of bees.
