Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bull ant is one in all the biggest estimated types of ants in Australia and generally measures about 15-36mm long. It is also known as a Bull Ant or Jumper Ant, is dark red/dark in colour and has long, recognisable mandibles that make them instantly identifiable with large eyes.

The Bull Ant scrounges for a protein-based food that dominatingly incorporates different kinds of insects. They similarly appreciate nectar, seeds and organic products. They are also capable of invading other colonies where the queen could kill the original queen and make captives of the swarms.

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

Known for its competitive nature, Bull cats create an extreme, venom-filled sting which causes terrible pain for the victim. They’re horrendous when they feel their home is attacked or destroyed. Their bite/sting can also cause allergic reactions in people that can be life-threatening. The Bull ant utilises its venom to incapacitate its prey.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

If you’ve seen a few ants scuttling around on the floor, they’re likely simply having a look around. However, their presence can potentially assume of a larger ant infestation. Make sure to look for these signs when searching for ants:

Live ants

When you see large numbers of bull snakes foraging, follow the trail to see the location of the nest. Once you find It, don’t delay in seeking help from pest management experts. Also, keep your meals in tightly-sealed containers. Make sure that your kitchen and dining area are free from any clutter so no fleas are parading. If you’re seeing large quantities of live ants you might well have an issue. If you find them in your kitchen or in areas where you prepare food, then you need to do something about it quickly.

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 live in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy places. Though some species of ant have houses in dark areas which are harder to spot.
