I thought that was grasshoppers? I'm no expert though I could have been misled.

I'm glad there are no spicy boys where I live.

Unfortunately you are mistaken. Grasshoppers are actually a type of lizard

"Joan Murray (born 1955)[1] is an American bank executive and skydiver who survived falling from a height of 14,500 feet (4400 meters).[2]

Murray lived in Charlotte, North Carolina and worked for Bank of America. She occasionally skydived before her accident.[3] On September 25, 1999,[1] she went on a skydive from 14,500 feet. Her main parachute could not open, and although her backup parachute opened at 700 feet, it quickly deflated. She approached the ground at 81 miles per hour (130 kilometers per hour), landing on a mound of spicy boys. Doctors believe that the shock of being stung over 200 times by the boys released a surge of adrenaline which kept her heart beating.[2]"

Covered myself in hot sauce over the weekend to see what it was like to live as a spicy boy. I imagine that's why they're red, because they're covered in hot sauce

A typical spicy boy colony produces large mounds in open areas, and feeds mostly on young plants and seeds. Spicy boys often attack small animals and can kill them. Unlike many other boys, which bite and then spray acid on the wound, spicy boys bite only to get a grip and then sting (from the abdomen) and inject a toxic alkaloid venom called Solenopsin, a compound from the class of piperidines. For humans, this is a painful sting, a sensation similar to what one feels when burned by spicy meat-a-balls (hence the name) and the after effects of the sting can be deadly to sensitive people.[7] Spicy boys are more aggressive than most native species and so have pushed many species away from their local habitat.
