About Red Ants


There are over 200 species of red ants, some small and some large. The most common red ant is known as the fire ant. It is a biting ant which grabs on and then stings with a poison called Solenposin. Fire ants live in mounds in moist open area and spend time eating plant material and occasionally a cricket. The colony consists usually of one or more queens, surrounded by drones and workers. The queen can produce up to 1500 eggs in one day.

Yikes...it's so cute! But, we have fire ants here. And they were in Texas.

I was playing golf one day with a friend in Houston and he was carrying his bag. When he reached his ball he laid his bag on the ground. The next thing I knew the bag was flying he was screaming and ripping off his shirt. He had set his bag on a fire ant mound. Not fun!

Hope you're doing well.
