Flying Ant Day has hit London and social media users have mixed feelings

Flying Ant Day has taken over the capital, and people have mixed emotions about the annual natural occurrence.

The event takes place every year when queen ants fly out of their nests, surrounded by male ants, to start new colonies elsewhere.

Despite the hashtag #FlyingAntDay becoming popular, the ants will actually be around for a few weeks.
