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.

Though ants are known to consume sweets, the Bull ant’s diet comprises mainly with protein, which they can get from other insects such as bugs, etc.. 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 queen and create the other ants their captive.
Known for its competitive character, Bull Ants produce a potent, venom-filled sting which causes incredible pain for the victim. They are mainly vicious when they sense the nest is in danger. An allergic response or multiple 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 ground, they are likely simply having a look round. However, their presence can potentially assume of a larger ant infestation. Make sure to look for these signs when searching for ants:
Presence of live ants
If you are seeing massive numbers of live ants then you may well have an issue. If you find them in your kitchen or in areas in which you prepare food, then you really need to do something about it quickly. Ant pathways – in and out of your property or premises are another sign. Some varieties of ants will lay down a pheromone path to a food source. This compound attracts different ants to locate food.
Ant Nest
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 ants, they mostly live in hollow tree trunks, rotten logs and burrowed in bushy places. Though some species of ant have houses in dark places which are harder to spot.
Most ants come inside your house looking for food. They are attracted to sweet and sticky substances. Here’s how you could ant-proof your house:
You can prevent ants from entering your home via adjusting passageways, by way of example, divides and fissure in entryway and window outlines.

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.
