Answer:

If you are bitten by fire ants, apply any toothpaste to the bites and wash off after 10 minutes. No blisters or reaction will occur. The toothpaste neutralizes the poison completely. The bites will still itch for a few minutes, but you will have no evidence of the attack by the next day.

The sting of an ant contains formic acid. When an ant bites, it injects the acidic liquid into the skin. The effect of the sting can be neutralised by rubbing moist baking soda (sodium hydrogen carbonate) or calamine solution, which contains zinc carbonate
