The pain is due to the formic acid in the ant's bite.
All ants bite or nip if you like with their mandibles which are capable of delivering a poison. Personal experiences: Yes, it is true. My wife was bitten by a common black ant and I white pimple appeared with some redness. I never thought that they would bite because I have neven been bitten by a common black ant. A red ant, absolutely. The Texas red ant which is huge, has bitten me and it really did sting and hurt. My ankle swelled up. Over a few days, the swelling disappeared and all was well.
Green ants hurt yes they do
No. They don't bite or sting. You can pick them up.
Horseflies don't sting, they bite. They use their jaws to bite a hole in the skin and then lick up the blood as it streams out. That is why they hurt so much.
No, black ants do not typically kill people with their bites. While the bites can be painful and may cause some minor swelling or discomfort, they are not typically dangerous to humans. It's important to clean the bite area and monitor for any signs of infection, but serious reactions are rare.
With a scorpion, it would actually be a sting instead of a bite. The sting will likely be painful and swell a bit. It might go numb around the sting itself.
only a red ants bite hurts
The daner of a scorpion is not its bite but its sting. Its mouth parts are too small for a bite to hurt you.

i think ants in the Amazon do it because they go in armies. I guess they makethemselves look bigger or they bite their predators. Cause, one bite isn't painful. But a bite from 600,000 ants hurt a lot.
No and yes. It depends on what kind of ant it is. If it is a black ant you have nothing to worry about unless you are allergic. But if you get a fire ant's bite it is a little dangerous, and it doesn't matter if you are allergic or not, a red ant's bite can be dangerous.
Well yes and know. They only bite so they cas hurt you more than once
