While touring in MT one year I sat down on the side of the road to shed my base layer and leg warmers. Stood up, pulled up the bib straps and started to feel little bites. Turn out I had sat down on the opening to an ant colony. Got stings as far up as my neck.
Always pay attention to where you sit.
With our fire ants, that only happens once. Then you learn to watch where you step.
