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 rodents in the whole wide world, there is one that is intriguing – the Bull Ant.

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 original queen.

Almost an exclusive Australian species, they are widely distributed across all states. Typically found outdoors, they build their nests underground, even though some prefer a hollowed tree trunk or rotten log. The nest is difficult to locate as 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 make a potent, venom-filled bite which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are mainly vicious when they feel the nest is in danger. An allergic reaction or several bites in humans may result in anaphylactic shock, which is dangerous. The Bull ant mainly uses its venom to paralyse insect prey.
