Anyone else heard about this? I seem to vaguely recall an episode of MacGyver that had something like this.

Ugh. And to think that I used to like ants...

They ruin everything! And they get freaking everywhere!

Or giant spiders, like in the movies. *shivers uncontrollably*

Ants? Not so bad. Of course, I've never really been around the biting or stinging variety, so I guess I don't have much room to talk.

I don't remember if they were actual fire ants that got me, or just the generic red ants that hurt like heck and people erroneously call them fire ants... but them red ones can really sting when they're mad. I tend to think it was real ones that I accidentally sat on....

But I love ants, but only the docile kind that dig away their happy hours in a jar.
