Video I stepped in a fire ant pile accidentally

Now they are moving their eggs. Soon as my foot sank in I jumped out quickly so didn't get bitten.

I hate fire ants! We treat every nest we see but neighbors don't treat them. Every time it rains I think the neighbors move over to our place.

I don't see any fire?

the fire runs through you when they bite you! vicious critters!

Those are small but guess they can pack a bite.

I saw one crawl up my moms leg in australia & it was huge...least 1/2inch.

She was screaming & they were fussing tryin to get it off & luckily she did not get bit.

Maybe it was a queen? It was huge!

Glad they're not here. I have somewhat of a phobia of ants after I accidentally stepped on a nest. I could feel them crawling and biting. It makes me jumpy to see 1000s of them crawling around.

They like to gang up on you and attack all at once.

 

[iamwhoiam]

Yuck. Good that you didn't get bit by any of them.

nasty little buggers, aren't they? we don't have them in MN, Thank God. but I got chewed up by them years ago in SC on road trip with the Ex. my leg swelled up from six maybe 7 bites. we packed my leg in ice and he drove like batman back to MN. I now carry epi pen.

I accidentally angered a few of them and didn't notice the bites much. Few minutes go by, I notice the burning... My toe was throbbing so hard that it felt like it was going to pop.

Ouch Sadie! That's vicious!

I had an allergic reaction to their bites. It took about 2 weeks to go back to normal.

Wow! Sorry to hear that! Yesterday one bit my oh and it swelled up like a bubble!

ugh you're so lucky you didn't get bit, one got me once and it burned and burned, just one stupid ant. I can't imagine if they all started crawling up your leg and biting
eww I just googled them and they just bite to grasp your skin and then they sting to inject their venom into you from their abdomen eww eww eww
