Little Fire Ants: Watch for This Tiny Threat | Bermuda News

Tiny, golden-orange little fire ants are on the move — and they could sneak into Bermuda via imported plants or soil. Already thriving in Florida and tropical zones, these stinging pests are hard to spot but dangerous: they can disrupt ecosystems, harm farms, and even sting you before you see them. With past fire ant experience under our belt, DENR urges vigilance — especially for plant and cargo handlers. If you spot a swarm of tiny orange ants or feel an unexplained sting, report it immediately to [email protected]. Early detection is key to keeping these invaders out for good.
