I'm thinking this is an ant of some sort. I've found a bunch of them along my back patio leading to my door. As you can see they are a yellow colour with some stripes. I'm just wondering if they bite or whatever because I have 2 children. Thanks.

Being in Ontario, I would guess you're looking at red ants:

I just saw one of those on my door frame a couple hours ago. I'm in northeast Ohio.

I think it's a false honey ant.

Quite possible.
