Why do antstore sell these because they can kill you with 1 sting ive watched many programs on TV about these ants and they put on it it hurts as much as a wasp sting ? Ive seen videos of people having to put there hands in the colony and its one of the worse pains they have felt they say...
They are called Myrm ecia pavida.
These ants are not more dangerouse than an ordinary wasp or bee. If you're not alergic to insect venom, there is no risk for you.
If you are alergic to such venom, you'll get an anaphylactic shock which can indeed kill you.
It wil kil you if you have an allergic reaction and go into anaphalactic shock, but this is not very common, it is certainly more painful than a uk wasp, but european was a 4 times bigger than ours
a other offerer sells bullet ants which apparently have the worst sting known to man so I wouldn't worry about Myrmecia pavida. Besides, they look like lovely ants and I'm def getting them whem I'm confident I have enough experiance.
The problem is that a lot of people are allergic to the puncture of Myrmecia ants...In Australia, where these ants live, Myrmecia's puncture are a major cause of life-threatening allergy (anaphylaxis) in this country, affecting as many as 50,000 people. See

Who sells bullet ants please? Because I'm thinking of getting more ants. Thanks
Bullet Ants, Paraponera, are very difficult to keep, and very dangerous, be very sure you have the experience and equipment to look after them!
Ok, but does anyone know who or what shop sells them please? Thanks

some years ago we have buy australian insects from http://www.insectfarm.com.au/ perhaps you can buy ants from this insect-shop.
I've already emailed them and they don't sell ants anymore.
