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 ants.

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 original queen.

Practically an exclusive Australian species, they are widely dispersed across all states. Typically found outside, they build their nests underground, even though some favor 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 strong, venom-filled sting which causes extreme 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.
