An invasion of 'highly aggressive' imported red fire ants has taken hold in an affluent California community, officials reported. These ants pose an immediate threat to California's agricultural economy because they require a quarantine of nursery products.
Venom from the ants can cause 'painful pustules on the skin, and can be particularly dangerous, even fatal, to sensitive groups or those with an allergy to the venom,' the release said.
