Although what these ants have done, and the distance they carried the soil is awesome, ants are a nuisance, and if red ants, can cause an allergic re-action-this happened to me and I had to have emergency anti-histamine and adrenaline administered. Red ants have a very potent sting which causes the skin to really hurt and swell, and in people like me who are allergic to 'ant sting', can cause anaphalactic shock!
