There are ants with thorns at home. They are very small, about 2 mm, reddish brown all over, and their bellies are very big. It is red and itchy after being bitten. What kind of ants are these?

A big red envelope will appear when bitten by a little red ant, not an allergy. You can rub iodine or wash it with soap, and the effect will be better. My husband is often attacked by little red ants. That's how he handles it. Haha, it's strange that small ants only bite one person, but it's very troublesome to get rid of them. We need to mobilize the whole building to act together

Recently, many readers have reported that many red-brown ants have appeared at home this year, and some families have been disturbed to their normal lives. In order to prevent the invasion of ants, many families pack food and hang it high, and "keep the walls clear" for red ants. Many citizens bought many drugs to kill ants, but the effect was not satisfactory.

Experts from the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention explained that the drought in Beijing this year was the main reason for the flood of red ants. At present, the main ant invading Beijing residents is the little red ant, also known as the little yellow beetle, which is small in size and only about 1.5 to 2 mm in length. The life span of female ants is about 15 years, while that of male ants is shorter. Experts pointed out that this little red ant generally carries various microorganisms, such as Shigella dysenteriae, and bites people, especially infants. If children have milk stains, they are easily bitten by little red ants.

Little red ants are sensitive to temperature, and most of them are active in hot weather. They like sweets, such as cakes, honey, maltose, red ponds, eggs, stones, skins, dead insects and so on. They can tell the direction and act quickly. If individual worker ants die, their bodies will be transported back to the nest. But they are not hungry. Without food and water, after four days and four nights, half of them will die.

Experts suggest that household ants can be flooded with boiling water first, and then put into the ditch with washing powder for plugging. It can also be used as a spray to kill cockroaches and mosquitoes. These drugs have the efficacy of killing little red ants. But the little red ant is a semi-social insect, and the general spray can only kill the workers who leave the nest. The queen and the queen are still breeding wildly in the nest. An ant queen can give birth to 600 small ants every second, so it is ideal for the whole building to take collective action to kill ants. The best way is to choose bait with good palatability and no repellent effect on ants. After the worker ants bring the bait back, they can poison the queen, the larvae in the queen's nest and destroy the whole nest. (Taiming: Taiming's ant bait has special effects on this kind of ant)
