Oral anti-histamine [H1] and systemic antibiotics were indicated in the complicated cases. In the concrete houses of the patients, a huge number of the large ants [mainly Catagliphus bicolar] were found. Spreading or burning dried leaves of camphor tree proved to be effective against the ants. Discussion also focused on the medical importance of ants
