Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bulldog Ant, is one of the largest sized species of ants in Australia, they typically measure 15-36mm in length. It’s also commonly known as a Bull Ant Or Jumper Ant, is red/black in color and has long, straight, distinguishing mandibles which make them instantly recognisable with large eyes.

The Bull Ant forages for a protein based diet which predominantly includes 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.

Almost an exclusive Australian species, they are widely distributed across all countries. Typically found outdoors, they build their nests underground, although some prefer a hollowed tree trunk or rotten log. The nest is difficult to locate as it features a small opening which is covered with plants or debris. They will attack any intruder that comes close to the nest.

Known for its competitive character, Bull Ants produce a potent, venom-filled bite which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are primarily vicious when they sense the nest is in danger. An allergic response or several bites in humans can result in anaphylactic shock, which is dangerous. The Bull ant mainly uses its venom to paralyse insect prey.

If you suspect an infestation inside your household and surrounding area, it is ideal to at least do some preventative measures. As aforementioned, these ants are extremely competitive and they have venom-filled stingers. Also, do not attempt to eliminate their colony by yourself. Call in the closest help of pest exterminator so that they can give appropriate treatment control. Here are some tell-tale signs you can assume for ant infestation:

Ant pathways – in and out of your home or premises are another sign. Some types 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 outdoors, but most of them have nests outside. On top of their nests are a small pile of dirt surrounding it. For Bull snakes, they mostly reside in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy places. Though some species of ant have homes in dark areas which are harder to spot.
