Social Insects That Work Well Together
Termites are social insects. They live in large, sprawling colonies made up of queens, kings, and workers who all work together to meet the needs of their colony.
Cellulose is a compound found in wood and paper, as well as in plant fibres. Termites are always on the hunt for cellulose.
In a termite colony, the queen and king are responsible for reproduction. A queen lays between 30,000 and 50,000 eggs daily. Most homes will have several colonies.

Termite Mating Season
Having the right termite pest control in Chuluota is crucial. Florida is home to the highest number of species of termites in the U.S. Each year, termites begin to congregate in Florida in early March. Different species of termites congregate throughout the summer.
Termites are most active during mating season, shedding wings and flying around in search of mates. Common things to look out for during mating season include:
- Dropped Wings:
Termites shed their wings when they’re no longer needed and this normally happens during the spring mating season. Wing droppings can be found on windowsills, near wooden structures and in spider webs. - Swarms:
The most common time of day for swarming is in the evening in spring and in the vicinity of light sources such as porch lights, lamps, televisions and other sources of household illumination. - Burrows and Blistering on Wood:
You may see raised bumps or even line-shaped paths on wood surfaces. This can be a sign that termites are burrowing under the surface of the wood. If you tap the surface and hear a hollow sound, you can be more certain that termites have been there. - Pellets in Piles:
Termite pellets, also known as frass, resemble a mixture of coffee grounds and sand and are a clear indication of nearby termite activity. It’s crucial not to clean termite piles until a professional specializing in Chuluota termite control has confirmed the infestation.
