In fact, termites and ants have been enemies for ages. However, blind termites have been known to forage close to ant nests. How do they get away with it?<\/p>\n<p>Researchers have shed some light on how <a href=\"http:\/\/newatlas.com\/blind-termites-killer-ants\/48050\/\" target=\"_blank\">blind termites<\/a> have been able to get close to ant nests without getting attacked. Scientists discovered that these pests are able to detect the tiniest vibrations ants make while moving. When they detect these vibrations, they have plenty of time to seek shelter from predatory ants.<\/p>\n<p>This fascinating finding could lead to changes in the way pest control professionals treat ant and termite infestations at some point in the future. For example, researchers could work on developing ways to mimic or produce the same acoustic signals that ants send out, which could keep termites far away from homes and other buildings. These research findings are important, but it will be a while before acoustics are used for pest control. In the meantime, pest control experts have other ways to eliminate termites.<\/p>\n<p>Having termites in your home means it\u2019s crucial to get help from pest control companies in New Jersey.
