Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

Ants are known as hard workers and they play a significant role in our surroundings. Though there are different species of ants in the whole wide world, there’s one that’s interesting – the Bull Ant.

The Bull Ant or bulldog ant is one of the most common ant species in Australia as they measure around 15 to 36 mm in length. They’re known to have two colours, red and black and has a distinct appearance. They have long and straight mandibles and a stinger filled with venom and large eyes.

Though ants are known to consume sweets, the Bull ant’s diet comprises mainly with protein, which they may get from other insects like bugs, etc.. They also enjoy consuming fruits, nectar and seeds. They also have the ability to invade other colonies. The queen can take over other colonies by killing the original queen and create the other ants their captive.

Known for its competitive character, Bull ants produce an extreme, venom-filled sting which causes terrible pain for the victim. They are horrendous when they sense their home is attacked or destroyed. Their bite/sting can also cause allergic reactions in people that can be life-threatening. The Bull ant uses its venom to incapacitate its prey.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

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

I had Benjamin from Local Pest Control come to our place on Monday because I was worried we had a spider problem. He identified a major funnel web spider situation. Benjamin was so thorough and considerate because I was very scared having three small children. He went above and beyond to make sure he spent as much time as needed to treat every single spider hole in our yard. He has arranged to come back in 2 weeks time just to make sure we are all safe for the Christmas period. So grateful for all his help. Highly recommend!

I recently used them for both my house and my parents house for general pest control and I can honestly say I regret not using them sooner. The results speak for themselves very professional, on time and very thorough. No place for the bugs to hide with these guys!!

Real Estate Property Manager. Prior to the introduction I had used other Companys who did not offer the same professional service I attained from Local Pest Control. No job was too small or too big and they were always contactable and were able to attend to the job quickly. The quality of their service and the work performed is second to none. I have used the Company for my own family needs as well and I will never again use another Company for my Pest Control needs.
