You might see termites swarming this spring, or you might find discarded wings close to windows. These wings come from swarmers, which are members of the termite caste that shed their wings after finding a place to start a new colony. Another sign of these termites is mud tubes, which are typically found on window trim, door trim, cellar walls, and wall studs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eastern Subterranean Termite Behavior<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/blog\/2017\/03\/10\/how-are-subterranean-termites-different-than-drywood-termites\/\" target=\"_blank\">termites<\/a> are highly social and build colonies in the ground. Worker termites within the colony are the ones that go out in search of wood and do the damage. Their purpose is to forage and bring food back to the colony so it can grow. Most homeowners won\u2019t see workers, but swarmers make their appearance in late winter or spring.<\/p>\n<p>The earlier you have a termite infestation dealt with, the better it is for your home.
