Indeed. Listerine has a disinfectant which is better for Fire ant stings. I take a cotton ball and cut it in half and soak with listerine. Squeeze out the excess liquid in the cotton ball, apply to each bite site and secure with a bandaid. In less than 30 minutes, most of the sting has been neutralised.
