Anti-terrorist Ants

Our house is not a million miles away from Chequers, as it is located in a particularly nice part of the Chilterns, we are in its vicinity fairly frequently.
Yesterday, we were walking near Chequers when we came upon its boundary. This is quite clearly marked with up ended rail track embedded in the ground to prevent vehicles approaching the building, and large warning signs.
What we were un-prepared for were the large red ants that came running out of a small branch that Louisa picked up, which then proceeded to give her a very nasty bite.
I tell you, you'd be mad to approach the place. They've even trained the wildlife to protect it!
