Why do fire ants hurt so dang much?
Why do they hurt so dang much? What’s in their bite?
It sure feels like fire. :)
I’m studying ants in college.
Fire ant bite doesn’t hurt, They have a stinger at their rear. When they sting they release a neurotoxin that cause a burning sensation
I think they just bite, I guess their bites just feels like fire lol I never got bit by one
I quote the following: . “… Unlike many other ants, which bite and then spray acid on the wound, fire ants bite only to get a grip and then sting (from the abdomen) and inject a toxic alkaloid venom called solenopsin, a compound from the class of piperidines. For humans, this is a painful sting, a sensation similar to what one feels when burned by fire—hence the name fire ant—and the after effects of the sting can be deadly to sensitive individuals. …” . from the Wikipedia article at http://funadvice.com/r/15249r4midi .

The venom of fire ants is composed of alkaloids such as piperidine. The sting swells into a bump, which can cause much pain and irritation at times, especially when caused by several stings in the same place.. hope it helped
