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.
