Types of Australian Ants

In Australia, several ant species can become pests in households, causing nuisance, contaminating food, and, in some cases, damaging property.

White-Footed House Ant

These ants are known for their pale coloration and are attracted to sweet substances. They are often found foraging in kitchens and around food storage areas.

Odorous House Ant

These ants are attracted to sweet foods and are known for the foul odor they emit when crushed. They often form trails along walls and countertops.

Coastal Brown Ant

Coastal brown ants are common in urban areas and are known for their large colonies. They are attracted to sweet foods and may become household pests.

Bulldog Ant

Bulldog ants are large, aggressive ants found across Australia. They are known for their powerful stings and bites. These ants have diverse species with varying sizes and colorus.

Green Ant

Also known as weaver ants, green ants are recognised for their bright green coloration and their ability to construct nests by weaving leaves together using silk produced by their larvae. They are commonly found in northern parts of Australia.

Argentine Ant

Originally from South America, Argentine ants have become invasive in many parts of Australia. They form large colonies and are known for displacing native ant species.

Management Tips

01

Sealing Entry Points

Identify and seal any cracks, gaps, or openings in walls, doors, and windows where ants may enter. Check for and repair damaged screens on doors and windows.

02

Keep a Clean Environment

Wipe down surfaces regularly to remove food crumbs and spills, clean up pet food bowls promptly after use, and take out trash regularly and use sealed bins.

03

Use Natural Deterrents

Ants dislike certain scents. Use natural deterrents like peppermint oil, cinnamon, or vinegar along any entry points to discourage them.



04

Store Food Properly

Keep fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator or in sealed containers.

Store honey, syrup, and other sticky items in jars with tight-fitting lids.
