LFA can both bite and sting, many people get a different reactions from the two. On seems to create an immediate response and the other is delayed. Liquid benedryl can provide relief from both.

No they don't; they may bite down to get a grip while stinging, but it's the sting that hurts. There are two major groups of ants - one can sting like wasps and bees; the other has lost the stinger and instead bites and sprays acid into the bite. Fire ants (of all kinds) and big-headed ants are in the first group; yellow crazy ants (long-legged ants) and the black ants that come into your house are in the second.
