The Bulldog Ant is one of the biggest types of ants 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 that 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 original queen.
Bull ants diet is mainly protein rich which predominantly includes other insects. They also enjoy fruits, nectar and seeds. They build colonies to protect the swarm and their queen, though from time to time, the queen takes over other colonies by killing the queen and have the ants from the other tribe become captive.
Known for its competitive character, Bull Ants make a powerful, venom-filled sting which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are mainly vicious when they sense the nest is in danger. An allergic reaction or several bites in humans may lead to anaphylactic shock, which is dangerous. The Bull ant mainly uses its venom to paralyse insect prey.
If you have seen a few ants scuttling around on the floor, they might be just having a look around. However, they might be the sign of a larger ant infestation. Be sure to keep these signs in mind when spotting ants:
Presence of live ants
Ants forage in search of food when you a large number of them parading in any are of home, follow the trail. This is the best way to check and see the location of the nest. Once you find it, don’t try to remove it instead call the help of pest exterminator. Why is this so? Because there are a variety of ant species and it is important to identify what kind of ant is invading your residence. Maybe it’s a Bull ant or a combination of many. Make it a habit to keep your kitchen and dining are spic and span. Keep your meals tightly sealed in air-tight containers. For fluids, make sure the containers are spill-proof. Ensure garbage is disposed of immediately especially for wet crap.
Ant Nest
Most ant nest site has a small pile of dirt surrounding it but unlike Bull ants, it is not present. As aforementioned they live in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and or burrowed in bushy places. Though some species of ant have houses in dark places which are more difficult to spot.
Occasionally, there are instances where ants can come in and out of your area. They’re attracted to sweet and sticky food that’s the reason it’s important to keep your area mess-free. As a preventive measure, here are some ways where you are able to control ants from gaining entrance at your home.
You can also help prevent ants entering your home by sealing access points such as cracks and crevices in the door and window frames.

They can also help you remove infestations and activity around your home or business. It goes without saying that all our treatments are safe for people and pets.
What should I do if I accidentally touch any of the areas that have been sprayed?
This will only be a concern if the sprayed areas are still wet. Should this happen, wash with soap and lots of water as soon as you possibly can. After a relatively short period of time, the carrier, tap water will have evaporated and will not harm you in any way should you come into contact with the area.
Will the gel that you use on the inside of my cupboards cause any contamination to the food inside?
We apply the gel only to places within the cupboard where insects are found. This means it will only be applied to cracks, crevices, and hinges.
Am I likely to see the return of pests after the treatment?
It is possible that insects such as ants, spiders or cockroaches may venture inside your property after the treatment has been completed. However, there is a very high likelihood that they will have crossed treated areas and will die very soon afterward.
