R B Rhoades1, C T Stafford, F K James.   

Abstract

A physician questionnaire survey was conducted by the Fire Ant Subcommittee of the American Academy of Allergy and Immunology to document deaths caused by imported fire ant stings. From the 29,300 physicians surveyed, reports of 83 fatal and two near-fatal fire ant-sting reactions were received. Most anaphylactic deaths were reported from Florida (22) and Texas (19). After excluding duplicate reports, four confirmed deaths were documented in Alabama, 10 in Florida, two in Georgia, two in Louisiana, and 14 in Texas.
