Army ants can be used to close wounds by clamping them with their jaws.

Termite stitches refers to a survival type technique where large biting insects, more commonly army ants, sometimes described as termites, are used to clamp a wound close with their jaws instead of using real sutures. Can you show me a picture of that? And then they would twist off their bodies and then they twist his body off. That's what he thinks because you twist the body off and it's like a natural stitch. They're pinching. So this is ants. They're using army ants here. Okay. That's what's sad. Oh, look at their teeth. Look at their fucking... Yeah. Oh, wow. And you could stitch up open wounds. And then you twist their back off, and then they're stuck in there. Oh, that's called an army surgeon ant. Wow.
