Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bulldog Ant is one of the biggest kinds of ants in Australia and steps about 15-36mm long. It is also known as Bull Ant or Jumper Ant, is red/black and has exceptionally long, straight, distinctive mandibles that make them familiar with substantial eyes.

The Bull Ant forages for a protein based diet which predominantly contains other insects. They also enjoy nectar, seeds and fruits. Colonies tend to be small but the queen does invade other colonies and take them captive, killing the original queen.

Among the exclusive Australian ant species, they can be found all around the states. Generally, they are found outside and assemble their homes underground. They also can build a nest in an emptied tree trunk or spoiled log. Their nest is sometimes hard to find as it includes a little opening which is covered with plants or debris. They will attack any intruder that approaches their dwelling.

Known for its aggressive character, Bull Ants produce a powerful, venom-filled sting which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are mainly vicious when they feel the nest is at risk. An allergic reaction or multiple bites in humans may result in anaphylactic shock, which is dangerous. The Bull ant mainly uses its venom to paralyse insect prey.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

On the off chance that you have seen a couple of ants leaving on the ground, they are simply looking around. But they may be an indication of a larger ant infestation. Make a point to keep in mind these signs when spotting rodents:

Live ants

If you’re seeing large numbers of live ants then you may well have an issue. If you find them in your kitchen or in areas where you prepare food, then you want to do something about it quickly. Ant pathways – in and outside of your home or premises are another sign. Some kinds of ants will lay down a pheromone trail to a food source. This compound attracts other ants to obtain the food.

Ant Nest

Ants can live anywhere whether indoors or outside, but most of them have nests outside. On top of their nests are a small pile of dirt surrounding it. For Bull ants, they mostly reside in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy areas. Though some species of ant have homes in dark places which are more difficult to spot.
