Flying Termites Take a Dangerous Journey to a New Life

Flying Termites Take a Dangerous Journey to a New Life

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
After the first big rain, western subterranean termites swarm by the thousands. Hungry ants, spiders and birds pick them off as they emerge from the soil. The survivors fly off to find mates, and quickly drop their delicate wings to start new underground colonies. If youre really unlucky, theyll build tubes of mud and saliva from their nest to yours

I remember everytime these flying insects visits our house at night(Yes they always come in numbers at night sometimes after a normal rain, we always turn off the lights inside our house and we just turn on the light outside ( they love to fly at bright lights) because if we let them in inside, it will become a mess on the floor and the wings are hard to sweep on the floor.
Fun fact: We always have many frogs visitors every these flyibg termites visits our house. The frogs feeds from them.

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9: 27)
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. (Isaiah 55: 7)
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10: 13)
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. (Psalms 34: 18)

BROOO
Yetsreday on the way to the park from school I saw some stuff coming outta the ground from afar and at first i thought it mighve been flower petals but the wind was hardly existent so then I was like It's not underground bubble blower. right?
I walked closer cause I had to go that way and saw it was coming from an ant hill and thought they were ants with wings. or so I thought 34 seconds into this.

We always have a swarm of these termites in the philipines we call it gamo-gamo
After it rain or if it was about to rain they gather in the streetlights or any lights that they see
They even go to the houses of people,
So everytime they gather in the streetlights thats a sign that you should close your window, door
Or close the lights so they cannot go in your house.

reply

They hate the cold. I had to blast the A/c in my room at my moms house because of the winged termites. It was horrible. For years I had to put up with this mess in April and May. When it felt humid after the rains I knew what was coming.
reply

Dude I have seen these things coming out of the ground looking like tornadoes every 50 feet or so, just black swarming masses or rotating and undulating squirming flying termites. I will never forget it.
reply

In southern Louisiana there are so many that their wings are visible on the roads. (Like weird little waves of them when you drive by) On nights when they swarm we have to turn out the lights
reply

Imma say there is probability that flying ants are what homeowners see buzzing around their backyard. I caught one and examined the body very closely and sure enough it was a winged ant.
reply

Catching these flying bugs is actually fun and easy cause they dont bite. Its a very good source of protein for our chickens and they just love chugging them down when feeding time comes.
reply

On certain times, tons of these flying termites swarm in my house mostly at night. They feel weird and they give me goosebumps, especially if they are in groups or they are squashed.
reply

These guys destroyed most of the furniture in my house. even the cat's scratching boxes.
Even then, watching the alates being eaten alive isn't a thing I'd wish for them.

reply

I use to eat this bad boys straight out of their colonies when i was a child, just cracking a nest open and munch on them, i remember them tasting like sweet wood.
reply

I remember I killed a lot of them with a dead electric fly swatter. And the aftermath was sweeping time. Me and my family placed off almost all of the lights.
reply

Finally someone who isnt like: Oh you saw a termite? Call exterminator, pour acid into their tubes, blow up your house, and burn them all
reply

Thanks Deep Look for this Educate, Today after the rain hundreds of them came out in the sky! So I search to know about them.
reply

I broke a termite colony on my papaya tree and the ants literary picked up a alive termite and took him to their hole
reply

In elementary these bugs started emerging from the ground so much and some kids (cause it was Kindergarten) ate them
reply

It seems those ants are the invasive Linepithema humile. A pity that they spread so fast and cause so much destruction.
reply

We Nagas remove the wings_ fry them with a pinch or two of chilly flakes
Eat them_ they are delicious trust me_

reply

In Africa those Elites are a delicacy for very many. We make soup and paste from grinding, boiling and frying them.
reply

I love termites because they have so many so many cool soldiers I don't hate ants but termite is more of my thing
reply

These bugs are the worst, i had the apartment smoke out, that solved it but then these bugs came back again.
reply

Surprised you didnt mention the Alates live for up to 40 years and are the most monogamous animals on Earth.
reply

A friend of mine eats these flying termites, says it tasts like peanut butter. Had to take his word for it
reply

In indonesia, they are called Laron. In the rainy season, they always come in houses and open indoor areas.
reply

I had this happen to my school as a kid it's pretty hard to eat lunch when ants are flying everywhere
reply

I just bless the plastic plate with holy cooking oil and swing like a mad man or just turn off the lights
reply

Me my mom my sisters and friends went hiking and I saw them and I was like imma throw those in the fire
