As the hot temperature rises across the UK, so do the number of reported flying ant sightings as the pesky insects begin to plague homes.
Many people have taken to social media to declare it as 'Flying Ant Day' - something that happens every year once the weather becomes warmer.
Contradictory to its name, it's not limited to just one day period and it doesn't happen on a specific day of the year. In fact, different parts of the country can experience swarms at different times.
