Termites 101

Household Moisture: All termites require specific environmental conditions to survive, and available moisture source is critical to termites. Termites construct tubes (mud tunnels) that pass over exposed areas, and these tubes serve to conceal the termites and provide a moist environment and protect them from their enemies.

Hidden Evidence: Sometimes an active infestation is obvious and other times may be difficult to spot. You’re more likely to discover you have a termite problem by revealing the evidence they leave behind rather than the actual termites themselves.

Insect Comparison: Swarming termites are often confused with flying or swarmer ants but there are three ways to separate a termite from an ant.

First, termites are broad wasted as opposed to ants that have a very thin waist between the thorax and the abdomen.

Second, termite wings are all the same shape and size, with ants the fore-wings are larger, longer and of different shape than the hind wings.

Third, termite antennae are straight and the ant antennae are elbowed.
