Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bull ant is one in all the biggest estimated kinds of ants in Australia and generally measures about 15-36mm long. It’s 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 big 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 first queen.

As one of the exclusive Australian ant species, they can be found all over the states. Usually, they are found outside and assemble their homes underground. They can also build a nest in an emptied tree trunk or spoiled log. Their nest is sometimes hard to locate as it includes a tiny opening that’s covered with plants or debris. They will attack any intruder who approaches their home.

Known for its competitive character, Bull Ants make a strong, venom-filled sting which causes intense pain. They are mainly awful once they know their home is at risk. An allergic reaction or multiple bites in people can prompt anaphylactic stun, which is risky. The Bull Ant specifically utilises its venom to incapacitate insect prey.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

If you’ve seen a few ants scuttling around on the ground, they are probably simply having a look around. However, their presence can possibly assume of a larger ant infestation. Make sure to search for these signs when looking for ants:

Live ants

If you’re seeing large numbers of live ants then you may well have an issue. If you find them in your kitchen or in areas where you prepare food, then you want to do something about it fast. Ant pathways – in and outside 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 outside, but the majority 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 areas. Though some species of ant have houses in dark areas which are more difficult to spot.
