    Termites: What you need to know

    Identifying Characteristics

    • The look of a Termite appears very similar to that of an ant, except their bodies are less segmented and they have a wider waist
    • Specific size depends on species, and vary in lengths comparable to ants
    • They are mostly light tan to almost transparent

    Active Season

    • Termites are swarmers and reproductives which tend to emerge in springtime
    • The queen is not the only reproductive member in the nest
    • In ideal environments they will remain active throughout the year, and will indefinitely reproduce

    Interesting Facts

    • A Termite nest consists of both a king and queen
    • Unlike many wood destroying insects, termites do actually ingest wood
    • Due to their swarming habits, people are most likely to see reproductive termites

    Cause for Concern

    • Termites can easily compromise the integrity of a wooden home or building
