Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

Ants play a significant role in our environment and are deemed to be a hard worker. The ant fauna is large and diverse, about 300 genera and 15,00 described species and subspecies. In Australia, there are approximately 100 genera and 1,300 described species of rodents.

Bull Ant or bulldog ant is regarded as the largest in Australia because they typically measure around 15 to 36mm in length. They are either black or red in colour and has a distinct appearance. They have very long and straight mandibles, 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 construct 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 make a potent, venom-filled sting which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are primarily vicious when they sense the nest is in danger. An allergic reaction or multiple bites in humans can lead to anaphylactic shock, which is dangerous. The Bull ant mainly uses its venom to paralyse insect prey.

Ant pathways – in and out of your property or assumptions are another sign. Some varieties of ants will lay down a pheromone path to a food supply. This chemical attracts different ants to find food.

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 snakes, they mostly reside in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy places. Though some species of ant have houses in dark areas which are more difficult to spot.
