Should this be in the wildlife thread, probably, but I am here now and comfy, so here it will stay. Today opened my compost heap lid - a pallet hinged on - in the garden to meet a huge ants nest, with eggs and flyers! Foolishly watched for a few seconds as they paniced and set about moving all of their eggs undercover, and then realised I was being bitten by them! Black ants ran up my amrs and legs and nipped me all over! Most unpleasant. Didn't know they nipped! Anyhow, told Ava, who decided I am prone to exagerate, so he went to look, foolishly watched them in their masses, and then he got bitten all over to. HA! ;D
