I am Cairns boy and have had many funny expeirances with green ants,
such as up a tree picking mangos and my big bro smashed me with a green ant nest about the size of a basketball , they were all over me so say the least. I ended up falling out of the tree but by chance was not hurt just had the crappers bitten out of me.

I knew of a bloke who decided to lick his anemone and said it tasted just like pepper ( just before they took him to hospital ) but I have never heard of anyone trying to lick an ants bum. I still cannot even imagine the logistics of that act
