Troubling little fire ant news this week… The Hawaii Department of Agriculture has confirmed that the invasive stinging ant has spread from the east side of the Big Island to the west side.

The Little Fire Ant was detected earlier this month at two locations in Kailua-Kona.

The tiny ants measure 1/16th inch long, and can produce painful stings that cause large red welts, and may even cause blindness in pets. The ants were first detected in Puna in 1999.
