Southern ants are pretty stupid. The uncles aren't much better. Ooooh, that bites.

I also thought they weren't supposed to, but soon I figured out it was all dependent on the size of an ant. The bigger they're, the more bold. And the boldest aren't shy to bite you. Since I haven't seen a big ant (or any ant at all, to be more specific) in years the only insects that bite me now are mosquitos. Luckily, Raid does help against them.

That was absolutely horrible, but I can't stop grinning.

Maybe you should clean your room, and spray the house with pesticide.

Give a nest of angry fire ants a chance, they'll eat a man.

The first think I know I remember is being 2 and standing in a red ant nest in Hawaii.

The main problem is all the yankees that insist on moving down here without knowing about the native flora and fauna. ;)

Fire ants are horriable, like killer bees but no wings. Going through the Air Force Police Academy at Lackland AFB San Antonio Texas, you learned real real quick that when the instructors yelled out PUSH UPPSSS! you looked to make sure you were not around any ant beds when you start beating your face.
