They are usually defending their ant hill, so in open places, it's best to keep
an eye to where your feet rest. (even cracks in the sidewalk)

I watch carefully now as I was bitten like crazy while choosing our palm at the nursery. I unknowingly stepped on the little ant hill, then stood there (in my sandals) admiring a tree. They got me good.

Your talking about fire ants.
