Tom Parker. Purdue University extension entomologist, points out that the winged swarm<rs resemble flying ants. But. he adds, they can be identified easily by the presence of four white wings of the same length. Too the termite’s body docs not have a pinched waist as does an ant. Instead the termite’s body is about the same width throughout. Many times the swarming termites can be seen coming from a crack in the basement floor oral the base of the house foundation. The colony is living in soil beneath the house and these swarmers are out searching for a new location to colonire, Parker explains. The workers of the colony are responsibih for the damage to the building. These small, white, soft-bodied insect tunnel through the wood .consuming it as they go. Many times they construct tubing from sand particles. If termites arc suspected. consult, a professional exterminator immediately, suggests Parker. He will inspect the premises thoroughly and make recommendations on the basis of his findings. In no instances, says Porker, should the homeowner attempt to control termits without professional he Ip. Details of pretreating for termites and tii mite control in existing buildings are contained in two Indiana Cooperative Extension Service publications, E-l "Pre-t reatment Termite Control.’ and E-5, ’ Termite Control in Existing Structures."
