Drywood Termites
End of Spring Beginning of Summer (July) Drywood Termites begin removing their droppings from the galleries they have created within the wood. Pellet production of the colony stays consistent through this time but is more noticeable by the homeowner. Every pellet pushed out by the termite colony is a portion of your wood just digested and eaten by a termite. The termites are pushing the little droppings out of the colony to empty the galleries for the reproductive alates (swarmers) to pack within. Swarmers are the winged termites that exit the colony end of summer/beginning of fall (September/October). These flying termites exit the colony to enter into new pieces of wood and create their colony as queens/kings.
Subterranean Termites
Exiting Winter (March/April) while it is still raining Subterranean Termites swarm. These winged termites exit the colony en mass in hopes of finding suitable wet soil/ground to burrow. Subterranean Termites never see the light of day except for the swarming day. The Queen, King and all of the workers are underground. Subterranean Termites build mud tunnels through foundation cracks in the slab of your home to reach the wall studs made of wood. These hidden destroyers consume large quantities of your home without your knowledge. Often they are only discovered when a mature colony has produced a swarm indoors.
