NEED HELP! HARVESYER ANTS!!!!!!

[Amyalgahim]

Please any help and information will be greatly appreciated. Before we were fully aware of the Harvester ants, we had ordered online at Amazon for our 6 y.o. After reading more, I've read that they bite/sting and can be very dangerous and sting/hurt extremely bad! We don't know what to do! I fear them getting out and biting our 6y.o. and having a bad reaction, even death. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!

Okay, so if you put them in the fridge before introducing them to their nest they wont be fast or aggressive. I highly recommend making sure your 6 yr old doesn't feed them on his own, but it may comfort you to inform you they cant climb smooth surfaces, which is extremely helpful. You should feed them seeds and sugar water, and don't be surprised if you see eggs, despite not having a queen. Workers will lay infertile eggs which will develop into drones(Or male) ants.
