Might as well flip that coin!
I got bit by about 10 black fire ants almost two weeks ago. These were in between my toes. I popped all the pimples I could reach the second day of the ordeal. Some of these I could not reach.

I still have one bubble in a place that is hard to get two fingers to and it still looks like it did 9 days ago.

Most of the other bites are healed.
