text: The red imported fire ant lives in a nest with a population of several hundred thousand, including, often, a single queen that functions essentially as an egg-laying machine; sterile and wingless female worker ants that tend to the queen, care for immature ants, excavate and maintain tunnels, hunt down and retrieve food, and defend the colony; and fertile and winged female and male ants that take to the air in mating flights after a rain.
