Red ants are harmful to humans

Ants are all insects of the members of the tribe of Formicidae, the Hymenoptera. Ants have more than 12,000 species, some live in tropical locations. Some large ants are known to be social insects, with their colonies and regular nests consisting of several thousand ants per colony.

Despite its relatively small size, the ants are among the strongest animals in the world. Male ants can support a load weighing fifty times their own body weight, compared to an elephant that can only support a load weighing 2 times the weight of its own body. Ants are rivaled by rhinoceros beetles that can support burden weighing 850 times their own body weight.

One colony can dominate a large area to support their lives. Ant colonies are sometimes referred to as "superorganisms" because of their colonies that make one unity.

Only in some places like Iceland, Greenland, and Hawaii, they do not control the area. 12 As their numbers increase, they can form around 15-20% of the amount of biomass of large animals.

Some types of ants are so known to humans for living with humans, such as black ants, big ants, red ants, fire ants, and ants.
