Yuk, dosen’t that little critter give you the creeps…? ants are something I am well familiar with because in Australia we have all kinds of them – your general black ant (we usually call them ‘sugar ants’ because they are a pest at picnics), red ant, green ant and bull ant…the soldier ants are the ones that really give you a nasty bite – as well as the green ants – and my dad was always being bitten when he was out working in the garden. One time he came in after a green ant bit him and he looked as though he had been stung by a horde of wasps…
In France we were always spraying the courtyard to kill the ants building their little nests in the dry soil; and the people next door discovered the effect of fire ant bites on dogs when their expensive pedigree mutt almost scratched itself silly last summer. If someone can tell me just why these things were put on earth then please let me know!
