Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

Ants are known as hard workers and they play a substantial role in our environment. Though there are different species of ants in the whole wide world, there’s one that’s interesting – the Bull Ant.

The Bull Ant or bulldog ant is one of the most common ant species in Australia as they measure around 15 to 36 mm in length. They are known to have two colours, red and black and has a distinct appearance. They have straight and long mandibles and a stinger filled with venom and massive eyes.

Bull ants diet is mainly protein abundant which predominantly includes other insects. They also enjoy fruits, nectar and seeds. They construct colonies to protect the swarm and their queen, though sometimes, the queen takes over other colonies by killing the original queen and have the ants from the other tribe become captive.

Known for its competitive character, Bull Ants make a strong, venom-filled bite that 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 can be risky. The Bull Ant especially utilises its venom to incapacitate insect prey.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

If you think you will find bull ants swarming in your property, it would be best to call the closest pest control experts. You can’t just simply manage in removing bull ant’s nest as this requires professional handling. As above, Bull ants are very aggressive and their stingers are filled with venom. However, there are simple things you can do and that is to look at your surrounding area for tell-tale signs:

Live ants

If you are seeing large numbers of live ants then you may well have a problem. If you find them in your kitchen or in locations 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 kinds 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 outdoors, but most of them have nests outside. On top of their nests are a little pile of dirt surrounding it. For Bull snakes, they mostly live in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy areas. Though some species of ant have homes in dark places which are more difficult to spot.

How do you ant-proof your home?

Most ants come inside your house looking for food. They are attracted to sweet and sticky substances. Here’s how you could ant-proof your home:

• Continuously cover food
• Clean food and liquid spills Immediately
• Clean food debris from under kitchen appliances
