Do Fire Ants Bite or Sting?

While fire Ants bite, it is actually the sting that's painful. Most ants bite and spray an acid on the bite. Lovely, right? But Fire Ants do one better. They bite to get a secure grip on you. It's hard to break, yet the painful part comes from the sting. They'll sting in a semi-circle as they hold onto you, injecting a venom that will create a burning sensation. These stings will later welt up and turn into blisters. Some people are more sensitive to these stings than others. These blisters may also become infected if popped, which could leave permanent scars.

Should You Be Concerned About Fire Ants

What is a Fire Ant, and what is it doing in your yard? Fire Ants originate from Brazil, but they were brought here in the 1930s. They hitched a ride via cargo into Alabama. They’re aggressive and territorial, so they spread quickly in the South. If they’re in your yard, it’s only a matter of time before you start getting them in your home, too. Fire Ant removal is a must.
