Are Bull Ants Pestering Your Home?

The Bulldog Ant, is one of the largest sized species of rodents in Australia, they typically measure 15-36mm in length. It is also commonly known as a Bull Ant Or Jumper Ant, is red/black in color and has long, straight, distinguishing mandibles which make them instantly recognisable with large eyes.

The Bull Ant forages for a protein based diet which predominantly contains 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 countries. Typically found outdoors, they build their nests underground, although some favor a hollowed tree trunk or rotten log. The nest is difficult to locate 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 character, Bull ants produce an extreme, venom-filled sting which causes terrible pain for the victim. They’re 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.
