Kings and Queens swarm during mating season to establish new colonies
Flying termites, also known as alates, are typically larger in size compared to other types of termites. They have longer bodies and wings, making them easily distinguishable from worker and soldier termites.
They survive on ants and termites
Colony and Swarm while flying
Colony and Swarm while flying
there is the Order Isoptera, which are, termites.
Flying Termites or alates
Draco volans get their food by flying from trees to and finding ants and termites
Once the flying (swarming) female termites have been fertilized by male termites and have landed in a suitable spot to start building a new colony, the wings are no longer needed.
Bugs that look like termites with wings are likely to have a similar body shape and size to termites, with a distinct waist and straight antennae. They may also have wings that are longer than their bodies and be a light brown or black color. These bugs are often mistaken for termites, but they are actually flying ants, which are a different species.
Mostly night flying insects. Also crickets, moths, beetles, mosquitoes, and termites.
those weird flying ants and termites can loose their wings sometimes :D hope this helps a little!
The humidity & temperature have to be just right to provoke swarming. It's not the time of year-same thing for termites.
