I was once digging in the garden and I see ants of milk-coffee-caramel color, taking one he stung me, they have a well-developed sting, and all this happens in Almaty!

I don't know what kind of ants you have, but the name "fire ant" is already clogged - the American Solenopsis invicta is a brutal creature, a powerful pest.

Anyone from Myrmicinae or Ponerinae (if representatives of this subfamily live in Kazakhstan) ...

We have reapers,but black ones ,not red ones, and isn't that what bulldog ants are like? if so we don't have any bulldogs! and there are no ugly ponerinas.

So these Solenopsis invicta seem to be expanding their range, I once saw a film about them, they said that they were brought to some other countries in the world besides the USA.
