Red imported fire ant
The red imported fire ant is an ant that comes from South America. It has spread to Australia, New Zealand, parts of Asia, the Caribbean, Europe and the United States, where it is seen as a serious pest. Its sting burns, and in some people it causes a dangerous allergic reaction.1

About 95% of its venom is made of water-insoluble piperidine alkaloids called solenopsins, and the rest is a mixture of toxic proteins that can be especially strong in sensitive people. Most stings cause intense burning and swelling, followed by sterile pustules (small fluid-filled bumps) that can last several days. In some people, a severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis can occur, with dizziness, chest pain, nausea, severe sweating, low blood pressure, shortness of breath and slurred speech.1

Between 0.6% and 6.0% of people may suffer anaphylaxis, which can be fatal if left untreated. More than 80 deaths have been recorded from attacks by this ant.1

It uses its venom and chemical signals (pheromones) to defend itself and its nest.1
Si nde fiɗii
- People who only have pain and pustules need no medical attention. People who develop anaphylaxis need emergency treatment with adrenaline. Whole body extract immunotherapy is used to treat people who are allergic and is regarded as highly effective.1

Anndal
When water levels rise, these ants build rafts to float on.1
A single mature colony can contain between 500,000 and 2,000,000 individuals.1
Over 1,800 scientific papers have been published using its name, and it is one of the most studied insects on the planet, rivalling the western honey bee.1
Workers dispose of scraps and dead ants on refuse piles outside the nest, a behaviour called necrophoric behaviour.1
Workers can live for several months, while queens can live for years.1
Feññinoowo goonga
Fenaande: The name "fire ant" comes from fire or burning nests.
Goonga: The name comes from the burning sensation caused by its sting.1

- Winged males and queens mate during a nuptial flight in the warm seasons. A colony can be started by a single queen or by a group of queens, which later compete for dominance once the first workers emerge.1
