Could There Be Sugar In Urine Due To Ants In The Clothing?

We had been seeing a few ants here and there in our bathroom but thought we had solved the problem with bug spray. however this morning before we left my son accidently peed his pants and being in a rush i just threw the wet ones on the shower floor and left. well when we came home today the underwear were covered in ants. Should i be concerned about sugar in his urine?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

This would not be an indication of sugar in the urine. You should not be worried about this. However, if you are concerned that this may be the case, your doctor can easily test a urine sample.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
