The tropical fire ant is a small ant that builds mounds in open, sunny soil. It is native to the Americas, including the Caribbean, but has spread through much of the tropics with human transport. Its venom can cause severe allergic reactions, so it is important to know what it looks like and where it lives.1

Nests are built mainly in soil in open, sunny areas. They form craters or mounds up to about 60 cm wide and 30 cm tall, with up to about 20 entrance holes per nest. In places where they have been introduced, mounds can be very dense, up to about 2,500 to 3,700 per hectare.1

The venom is a mix that includes the lipophilic alkaloid solenopsin, a fat-loving chemical and a major part of the venom. Its venom is comparable in power to that of the red imported fire ant (Solenopsis invicta). It can cause severe allergic reactions, especially anaphylactic shock, a sudden and dangerous whole-body allergic reaction.1

Its venom is comparable in power and dangerousness to that of the red imported fire ant. Its allergic reactions, especially anaphylactic shock, can threaten human survival.1

Dintlha

1

Colonies can spread by floating, and new queens can start colonies after a nuptial flight.1

2

Its worldwide range is even larger than that of the red imported fire ant, another invasive fire ant.1

3

It can interbreed with other closely related fire ant species.1

4

It is native to the Americas but has spread across the tropics, largely through human transport.1

5

Colonies can have a single queen (monogyne) or many reproductive queens (polygyne).1
