It is usually rare for ant and termite colonies to interact, but in situations where the two colonies come into contact it depends on the species, size, and type of the two insects. In many cases, though, the more aggressive ant species will consume the termite colony.

What attracts gnats to my home?
Means, motive, and opportunity are what cause a gnat infestation. The insect in question will infest any area which offers entry points (such as breaks and cracks around doors, roofs, walls, and windows), food sources, protection for environmental stress and natural enemies, and shelter for mating and raising subsequent generations.
Chiggers do not reproduce.
Specifically, the term in question designates the larval stage of mites in the arthropod family Trombiculidae. An adult mite reproduces in one of two ways. Asexual reproduction results from the fact that each female mite in essence is "born pregnant," with the capability of delivering eggs -- which almost uniformly hatch into female clones -- without male involvement. Sexual reproduction nevertheless will produce eggs which will progress from prelarval, chigger, and nymph stages before becoming female or male mites.
How many germs layers do insect have?

Hemolymph is a fluid in the circulatory system of arthropods (e.g. spiders) and is analgeous to the fluids and cells making up both blood and intestinal fluid.
No, deodorant doesn't repel insects. In fact, it attracts them. Mosquitoes in particular are attracted by pleasant scents such as perfume, soap and deodorant.

What is the composition of physiological saline for insects?
9.1 g/l of NaCl, 0.52g/l of KCl, 1.2g/l of CaCl2.2H2O and 0.8g/l of MgCl2.6H2O constitute an insect saline.
Flying ants do only fly once. Once the ant sprouts wings, they will fly out of the next and mate to form new colonies. The male ant will die shortly after mating.
If a pesticide is released into the environment that kills most of the grasshoppers. it would interrupt the food chain in which the grasshopper participates. It may limit the presence of locust swarms that have decimated food crops throughout history. It may also be a problem for predators that feed on grasshoppers and may have to rely on other insects.
It is also very likely that a pesticide that kills most grasshoppers will also kill other insect types and this may be a problem.
