And the winner is... Fire ants!

http://www.controlfireants.com/fire-ant-fights.htm

This has to be one of the funniest explanations of Fire Ants' 'awesomeness' that I have ever seen! Enjoy.

I think whoever made that website is a little confused as to what a locust is.

Aweeee... why can't we get fire crackers here!!! I wanna blow up some green tree ant nests!!!

They have cool nests that would harbour a fire cracker no problems!

I think green tree ants would do very well against fire ants to...

Green Tree Ant - Bigger, faster, more agression and look cooler because they're dressed in Australian Green! Plus they taste like peppermints if you eat them and make a jolly nice tea if you pour the whole nest into boiling water.

Fire Ants - Don't (luckily) have established colonies in Aussie, look stupid in red, don't have cool tree nests with sewn together leaves.

It all fun and games until you stand too close when the cracker goes off. Nothing worse than an entire ants nest flying into your face, especially when they are mighty pissed off. Better than blowing them up with crackers is setting a leaf on fire next to their nest. They all come charging out to attack it and when they get too close KHABLAHM!!! Their bums explode lol.

Pfft the ones with wicks are useless. They aren't water proof. You get the ones without wicks, they are water proof and all you need it a match box to light them.
