Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bulldog Ant is one of the largest types of rodents in Australia and measures about 15-36mm long. It’s also known as Bull Ant or Jumper Ant, is red/black and has exceptionally long, straight, distinctive mandibles which make them recognisable 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.

Among 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 emptied tree trunk or spoiled log. Their nest is sometimes hard to locate as it includes a tiny opening that’s covered with plants or debris. They will assault any intruder that approaches their dwelling.

Known for its competitive nature, Bull ants produce an extreme, venom-filled bite that causes terrible pain for the victim. They are horrendous when they sense their home is assaulted or destroyed. Their bite/sting can also cause allergic reactions in people that can be life-threatening. The Bull ant utilises its venom to incapacitate its prey.
