(1695) Biting by ants .Nor can I assume that Ants bite and that this causes a stinging pain , but I rather believe , as I have stated before , that Ants have in the hind part of their body a sting , which they thrust out of their body when they wish to sting there with , the sting carrying along a few small droplets of moisture , which they thrust into the skin as they are stinging and that this moisture causes the pain .In such a way the scorpion , Indian Centipede also stings .
