This is super cool and I'd definitely tuck it away for later use if I weren't allergic to fire ant venom.

I mean they use 24 species of ants, I doubt all of them are fire ants if any at all

i don't think fire ants piss acid as a form of defense? the post is about ants that spray formic acid at scary things, not being stung.
