Fire ants are an aggressive species. If you disturb the nest, they will come after you, biting and attaching to your skin with their jaws and then stinging you from their abdomen. The venom the ants inject causes red marks that soon turn into white pus-filled bumps. About one percent of the population is severely allergic to the fiery sting. For those folks, chest pain, nausea, loss of breath, and even death from anaphylaxis shock can be the side effects. Ants are more like a human society. The species is invasive, meaning they spread throughout a region, pushing the natural inhabitants out of the areas they invade with no natural enemy. Scientists are looking at using the venom of the Little Black Ant to control fire ants. Dogs are now being used to locate the fire ants by tracking the ants’ pheromones. As bad as the fire ant is, the Tawny Crazy Ant can make the fire ant flee the area with their swarming abilities.
