Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bulldog Ant is one of the largest types of ants in Australia and measures about 15-36mm long. It is also known as Bull Ant or Jumper Ant, is red/black and has exceptionally long, straight, distinctive mandibles that make them familiar with substantial 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.

Almost an exclusive Australian species, they are widely dispersed across all states. Typically found outdoors, they build their nests underground, even though some prefer a hollowed tree trunk or rotten log. The nest is difficult to find since 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 Ants make a potent, venom-filled bite which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are mainly vicious when they sense the nest is at risk. An allergic reaction or several bites in humans may result in anaphylactic shock, which is dangerous. The Bull ant mainly uses its venom to paralyse insect prey.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

If you’ve seen a few ants scuttling around on the ground, they may be just having a look around. However, they might be the sign of a larger ant infestation. Be sure to keep these signs in mind when spotting ants:

Live ants

If you are seeing large numbers of live ants you might well have a problem. If you find them in your kitchen or in locations in which you prepare food, then you need 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

A nest site can look like a small pile of dirt or soil. Some species of ant like to make their home in walls or other silent, dark places, which are more challenging to spot.

How do you ant-proof your home?

Occasionally, there are cases where ants can come in and outside of your region. They are attracted to sweet and sticky food that is why it’s important to maintain your area mess-free. As a preventive measure, here are a few ways where you can control ants from gaining entry at your home.
