There is one flying around the light, can I pick it up and put it outside or will it bite or sting me?

Flying ants are up there with winged sharks and long term commitment in my list of fears

Anything with teeth, no matter how small the teeth, can bite, not sure you will feel it much though. Don't think flying ants sting, but could be wrong. Anyway they are nasty things, and I am nasty because I would just kill them, I really dislike them.

Without wishing to be too Charles Darwin, it was unlikely to be a flying ant, and more likely to be a simple house fly.
Maybe it was a fly pretending to be a flying ant? |

It was just after St. Patrick smacked the s**t out of the snakes, so the ants all thought "****** this, this fella is a maniac so he is, time to take to the skies, and no mistake"
You can check it out, but that is the historically accurate version I've just given you. |

It would be strange behaviour for an ant to undertake. They are still colonised, so a rogue one flying around a light didn't seem to fit to me. |

House flys look nothing like ants, so I doubt many would mistake the two.

Do you think it's likely that a flying ant was buzzing round her light at a quarter to midnight? |
