Almost an exclusive Australian species, they are widely distributed across all states. Typically found outdoors, 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 plants or debris. They will attack any intruder that comes close to the nest.

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