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 rodents 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 straight and long mandibles and a stinger filled with venom and massive eyes.

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

Known for its competitive character, Bull Ants produce a potent, venom-filled sting which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are primarily 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.
