Rescue 911: Baby vs. Fire Ants

[@pinkpandamiranda]

I'll never understand how well they shot this show. It feels really realistic!

[@mikaelpersaud5094]

It happened before reenacting.

[@Godluvs1000]

Fire ants are very painful the same thing happened to my daughter she was standing right in the middle of the nest. Thank God she didn’t have a reaction to the bites. Thank God your baby made it and you guys stayed calm enough to save her life by your quick actions.

While a mother's concern for her child is important it is absolutely vital that she take a back seat and allow the people whose job is emergency care to do their jobs without a mother impeding them!

No she wasn't being a careless mother. But good job for throwing it in there so you can look relevant.

[@muffs55mercury61]

We have them all over Arkansas here and anthills everywhere. They're hard to get rid of. They sting immediately once they're on you. I got stung by maybe a half dozen of them and the blisters appeared very soon after. Those ants are appropriately named. Imagine a small child being stung by that many.

Poor baby! It sucks when you are allergic to fire ants, then you're so much closer to death, especially when you're only a baby and don't know what you're doing or know better. Luckily she was rescued!

I've watched this video like 20 times and the first time I cried and it was like 3 years ago and at 11:02 it sounds like a tiger roaring

[@KelliM]

What was also bad is that after being bitten, she just put her in the swing. She didn't try to put anything on it for the stings or take her inside to remove her clothes to make sure no ants were underneath her shirt or diaper.

[@kellylifechannel1660]

I remember when my sister got bitten by a lot of fire ants. my grandma took her inside and cleaned her up she was crying and I was inside laughing at her. my mom was like it isn't funny. I was only little

[@andreapatane4204]

This is an "ow quit it" situation which means that it's very painful for people of all ages. Fire ants and babies don't mix.

[@mandyholmberg5106]

I really! Feel like it's a miracle that this baby girl survived this accident

[@naowright9308]

We had an ant hill just off the back patio that we tried to destroy. As it was my children knew that if they left it alone the ants never bothered them. My toddler walked off the patio and stopped right on top of it. He started crying and I ran out the back door to him. He had several ants on him which I started swatting and swiping off of him. I had to take his shoes off to get them off. From the time he started crying to the time he was ant free was about 45 seconds. He had about a dozen stings on his legs. I prayed for him and he never had a reaction. He got down and started playing again and, thankfully, was just fine. We moved from that house, just to say.

[@ForgottenAccount2011]

[@robertdubs9466]

I got bit by some fire ants on my ankle. Thanks to my mother's quick actions by running hot water on my ankles and applying some Benadryl, I experienced nothing more than some mild itching.

That's the standard thing that must be done. We had a cocker spaniel who got into them when we were camping, all I could do was get him to the cold running water, and knock them off him. Luckily he didn't have a reaction to them, but I felt so bad for the poor guy.

[@AmandaWspoon]

I was 12 when i stepped in fire ants, it happened before but this was the worse i remember. I had socks and sneakers on. My foot swelled and pus started to come. It hurt so bad i barley made it back to my friends house. Luckily after rest cream and air the swelling stopped but my sock would have soaked up some pus for the week after. Ive always had mild allergies to ants and mosquitos but nothing is worse the fire ants. Poor baby. Poor parents. Im glad she was okay.

I sat in a fire ant bed at about that age, I still remember it to this day. Gives the phrase "ants in your pants" a WHOLE new meaning!

[@ItsCoreyLynxxYall]

I went through a similar situation when I was 4 at my grandma's property in Douglasville, GA. I was staying there and she was keeping me while my folks went away on vacation. I was able to run away and I went to her door. She stripped me down butt nekkid and shook my clothes till the ants came off and then put ointment all over me. Still remember it.

[@annm861]

I’ve never been bit by a fire ant but if a regular ant bite hurts I can’t imagine how painful a fire ant bite must be

[@nin10dohgirl16]

Thank God the baby was OK in the end

[@YACABE]

Everybody telling their ant stories :) When I was four I got on all fours and pretend I was a wolf. My neighbors rarely cut their grass so I crawled into an anthill in that tall grass. My mom heard me scream, took my clothes off and started wiping ants off with my clothes. Not sure if they were fire ants but they crawled real fast all over my body. So people, cut your damn grass.

[@chemicalvampire]

+Becky Kaye When I was younger, I went outside during the night-time and I wasn’t looking where I was going which caused me to step in a fire ant hill. I just thought it was grass. Then I went inside and saw red bumps all over my foot. It was actually super scary :/

And Solenopsis Geminata. lol those aren’t even Fire ants those are Harvester ants Probably because of the Size of the ants in the Video.

Well apparently we missed it that time because I went rolling into a fire ant mound. It hurt so bad. A year or so after that this girl kicked an ant hill directly at my ankle and the thing swelled from how many bites I got in one area.

Fire Ants in Texas are also no joke. Scratch them and your leg will look as red as a 🍅. And they are just as annoying as your bae

[@ladykiri42]

Here in Hawaii we have the "Little Fire Ants". They can be so tiny as to be almost invisible, without reading glasses on. I go into my kitchen to cook, set one hand on the counter (not seeing anything there), and get bit by 3 or 4 of them. ;( They hurt, for a long time. The only things we've found that relieves the pain at all is ice, or a product for burns. In some ways they're even worse than standard red ants, because they're so hard to see, and nearly impossible to keep out. We had the standard sized ones in Florida when we lived there, and during a hurricane, with the rain falling hard, the red ants just formed a raft, hanging onto each other, and flowed down and out of the run off - where they began a new hill. We have some friends in Australia, and I hope the lfa's never get carried there, but it seems almost inevitable.

Fire ants is horrible thing that could hurt anybody because I remember when my friend Chloe stepped on a pair of fire ants at Myrtle Beach when she was on vacation and she screamed ouch.

[@billybassman21]

Why didn't the mom bring her inside and put some medicine on the bites? Instead she put her in the swing where she couldn't scratch or anything. Also there could have been a few hidden continuing to bite her. I got in a fire ant hill when I was 3 in the parking lot of the grocery store. They had trees in the middle with dirt around them. I was standing there while my parents loaded up the car. I didn't get sick, but it was bad. My grandmother was visiting from New York and she went inside and got some medicine right away.

[@heilumann]

+billybassman21 If you not have the right medicine you can do nothing. Firstly you have to check the body. Than you have to cool the body, between you have to call the doctor, especially if is a little child. Went to the next hospital. I have an allergy against bee and moscito sticks. You always have to calm down and that is not easy if you getting your arm or leg bigger and bigger sometimes i could not breath. Sorry for my englisch.

I wonder if when Toni was old enough to go to school she probably took the medical kit with epinephrine with her or her parents gave it to the school nurse. I had a feeling that she didn't want to go out for recess. I hope she didn't say "I'm not going outside for recess. It's not safe."

This exact thing happened to my 2 year old a few months ago. We were at a water park and she walked right into an ant bed. I immediately started walking to a medical tent to see if I could get her some Benadryl, just in case. As I was walking there she went unconscious in my arms. I don’t remember much after that.. I’m so appreciative to all the people who ran to help me or help her I should say. This one man ripped her from my arms and started doing what he could. I am so so great full because I was absolutely useless. She had a seizure on the way to the hospital, and the ambulance had to pull over on the highway. I thought I was gunna loose my baby. I totally understand what that mother went though. She’s fine now, God had his hands on her but never underestimate an ant bite, especially with your infant.

I went through this in 1956 my dad left me accidently on a ant bed. But as that was bad it showed a flaw that has haunted my family for my lifetime.God knows I love my mother but this is what happens when a woman runs the family. She would make decisions that crippled me and ignore me when I told her about the extreme abuse a bully was exerting on me. One day while running from this jerk I ran full speed into a window unit and it did affect my mental abilities. She made me hate school, girls, and other things. She was so critical of my dad it made him crazy. Her decisions wore often reactionary stiffuling my early development.
