Fire Ants Fire ants have been in the United States for over sixty years‚ and almost every American that lives in or frequently visits the quarantined states which they inhabit has had an unpleasant run in with these troublesome critters. Inhabitants of the Southeast who have ever stood unwittingly atop a fire ant mound know that the insects are aptly named. When the ants sting it creates a sensation similar to scorching caused by a hot needle touching the skin momentarily (1. Tschinkel 474)

They feel that this is beneficial to girls who cannot talk with their parents about sex or girls who get rapped and are too embarrassed to tell their parents. They
