    Worst day of hunting I ever had is when I stuck my hand in a ball of those bastards in a rice field in LA before daybreak.

    I found out the hard way as a kid when lake wateree flooded. I was paddling a kneeboard and touched a pile of ants with the paddle. Let me tell you they are MEAN when they're balled up floating.
