As one of the exclusive Australian ant species, they can be found all over the states. Usually, they are found outside and construct their homes underground. They can also build a nest in an emptied tree trunk or spoiled log. Their nest is sometimes hard to find as it includes a tiny opening which is covered with debris or plants. They will attack any intruder that approaches their dwelling.

Known for its aggressive nature, Bull Ants produce a strong, venom-filled bite that causes extreme 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 is risky. The Bull Ant specifically utilises its venom to incapacitate insect prey.
