Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bulldog Ant, is among the biggest sized species of ants in Australia, they typically measure 15-36mm in length. It is also commonly known as a Bull Ant Or Jumper Ant, is red/black in colour and has very long, straight, distinguishing mandibles that 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.

Bull ants diet is mainly protein abundant which predominantly contains other insects. They also enjoy fruits, nectar and seeds. They construct colonies to protect the swarm and their queen, though sometimes, the queen takes over other colonies by killing the queen and have the ants from another tribe become captive.

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

Have you spotted any bull ants?

If you have seen a few ants scuttling around on the floor, they might be just having a look around. However, they might be the indication of a bigger ant infestation. Be sure to keep these signs in mind when spotting ants:

Live ants

If you are seeing huge numbers of live ants then you may well have an issue. If you find them in your kitchen or in areas in which you prepare food, then you really have to do something about it fast. Ant pathways – in and out of your property or premises are another sign. Some varieties of ants will lay down a pheromone path to a food source. This compound attracts different ants to locate food.

Ant Nest

A nest site can appear like a little pile of soil or dirt. Some species of ants like to create their domestic in walls or other silent, dark spots, which can be tougher to identify.
