Bull Ant or bulldog ant is deemed to be the largest in Australia because they generally measure around 15 to 36mm in length. They are either red or black in colour and has a distinct appearance. They have very long and straight mandibles, a stinger filled with venom and large eyes.

They also enjoy consuming fruits, nectar and seeds. They also have the capability to invade other colonies. The queen can take over other colonies by killing the original queen and make the other ants their captive.

Have you spotted any bull ants?

Live ants

If you’re seeing huge numbers of live ants then you may well have a problem. If you locate them in your kitchen or in areas in which you prepare food, then you definitely need to do something about it fast.

Ants can live anywhere whether indoors or outside, but most of them have nests outside. On top of their nests are a small pile of dirt surrounding it. For Bull snakes, they mostly live in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy places. Though some species of ant have homes in dark areas which are more difficult to spot.
