What could this be??

[Shinigami357]

There are all sorts of nasty crawly things in Florida.
(I still remember the first time I encountered the Banana Spider.)
Georgia and Tennessee are just as bad.

No idea precisely what your creepy crawler is, but if you can find their nests you can probably eradicate them for a while.

Oh my freakin-!!! That's one helluva big spider.

They look even bigger when you're walking around at night and find one of their webs with your face.

Well o already found that it lives in a small hole in the ground a few feet away from a tree

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

In hard or sandy soil?

 

[Team_Subspace]

Its kinda right there in the middle because the top layer is harder and below is sandy

Don't try to get rid of them on your own.

You try and destroy one nest, the survivors go on to make five more.

Get a professional.

Run...Run as fast and far as you can. Just in case you get that bite XD

Looks kinda like a meat ant.

Well I can't use that info to identify it....so I'll give you the redneck answer:
Try gasoline.

No you don't have to light it. It'll kill them on contact.
If enough is used it's likely to reach the queen.

 

[Team_Subspace]

It doesnt look like a meat ant because the abdominal section is to big...

 

[Shinigami357]

Technically, there are many species and subspecies of ants. Frankly, it could be anything, but the description fits. Doesn't mean you have bullet ants (in which case you're screwed) but it does mean you have a hell of an insect infestation problem on your hands. Best of luck.

 

[Team_Subspace]

xD the redneck answer is always the best one haha. But also if you light it it will burn all of those little critters but will cause a problem with the surrounding flamable stuff

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

not to mention that if you light it, the fuel won't reach so far into the nest.

 

[Team_Subspace]

Theres also not too many so it wont cause a problem (unless it is in fact a bullet ant)

I recommend getting a professional instead of doing this on your own. This isn't your ordinary ant. Ant with that size are known to attack en masse. If you can get this guy to your teacher then do that, he/she may identify it and provide advice on how to get rid of it.

Should you be brave and want to get rid of them yourselves, wear gloves, rain boot, long jean, and anything that covers your body with clothes. Be sure to watch your step and not squashing them.

I also don't recommend gasoline, it will not kill the queen. Gasoline is a repellent, not an insecticide. Gasoline kills any plant in contact with, and it contaminates the soils for a very long time.

As for my opinion, I would have to vote bullet ant (Paraponera clavata).

Edit: I highly doubt that it's a Bullet Ant (Paraponera clavata) because Bullet Ants are much larger than a dime. Workers are usually 20-30mm while a dime is 17.91mm..

I didn't know we had our own picture upload service

What else have you hidden from me!?

Also, the ability some people here have to recognize ants impresses me.

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

Paraponera is a genus of ant consisting of a single species, commonly known as the lesser giant hunting ant[1] or bullet ant (Paraponera clavata), named on account of its powerful and potent sting, which is said to be as painful as being shot with a bullet. It inhabits humid lowland rainforests from Nicaragua south to Paraguay.

This is why I don't believe that we're talking about a Bullet Ant.
