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 is one that is intriguing – the Bull Ant.

Bull Ant or bulldog ant is regarded as the largest in Australia since they typically measure around 15 to 36mm in length. They’re 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.

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

Known for its competitive nature, Bull Ants make a powerful, venom-filled bite that causes extreme pain. They are mainly awful once they know their home is in danger. An allergic reaction or multiple bites in people can prompt anaphylactic stun, which is risky. The Bull Ant especially utilises its venom to incapacitate insect prey.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

If you suspect an infestation within your household and surrounding area, it’s ideal to at least do some preventative measures. As above, these ants are extremely aggressive and they’ve venom-filled stingers. Also, do not attempt to remove their colony on your own. Call in the nearest help of pest exterminator to ensure that they can provide suitable treatment control. Here are some tell-tale signs it is possible to assume for ant infestation:

Live ants

If you’re seeing large numbers of live ants you might well have an issue. If you find them in your kitchen or in areas in which you prepare food, then you want to do something about it quickly. 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 chemical attracts other ants to find 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 little 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 harder to spot.
