Those <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/Identify-a-Termite\" target=\"_blank\">termites<\/a> spend their time inside colonies rather than venturing outside. The termites you\u2019re most likely to see in your home are winged ones that swarm in spring in order to mate. These bugs shed their wings after fertilization occurs, so you might notice their discarded wings near windows in your home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Termites or Flying Ants?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you think you see winged termites in your home, keep in mind that they could be flying ants. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/termite-control\/termite-identification.php\" target=\"_blank\">Termites<\/a> have different sized wings, while flying ants have wings that are the same size.
