FACTS ABOUT TERMITES SWARMER 

Termites are social insects and they form colony in which they live. In colony, there are workers, king, queen and nymphs and they work jointly to ensure the life and growth of the colony. If you see large numbers of flying insect having straight sided bodies and long, equal-length wings inside your home, it may be the results of an insect mating and it is called termites swarmer. Different species of termites swarm at different times of year but  swarming starts in spring and ends in late fall. There is more chance to see termites swarmer, typically on a warm day with calm winds after a rainfall. If you find most of the swarmer indoor then you quite likely have an infestation under/in your home or business. In most cases, the termite swarmers simply die if they cannot escape from your house. They may be attracted to light and die on window sills or open areas.

NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ANTS SWARMER 

Like termites, ants are also social insects. As part of their seasonal activity, ants produce a swarm of winged flying ants, known as swarmer ants. Swarming is also known as reproductive flight, as the ants are out to start new colonies. Swarming is seasonal, often taking place in the spring, and can occur once to a few times a year. 

It typically lasts for one day and happens simultaneously for all colonies in an area, which increases the chance of a queen finding a mate from a different colony. Most ant species release swarmer in the late afternoon, typically after a shower of rain followed by sun. 

Pavement ants and carpenter ants often release as the sun is setting. Ants’ swarmer have a pinched-in waistline, antennae with a bend in the middle and two long and two short wings. If you find flying ants inside your home it is most likely that an ant nest is nearby.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is swarmer?
Both ants and termites are social insects. They form colonies. In these colonies there are different castes or groups of physically distinct individuals with unique functions. They are reproductive and worker castes. The worker caste usually makes up the largest part of a social insect colony. All workers are female in the social insect world. Worker ants are those ants we see most often feeding at our tables and foraging outdoors for food for the colony. Worker termites are the small white insects we see when we break open a piece of decaying wood. The reproductive caste consists of both males and females. Unmated insects are called pre-reproductive and usually possess wings prior to leaving the colony. Pre-reproductive remain inside the nest for varying periods of times. Sometimes for several months waiting for the proper signals to leave the nest in search of new mates. When they emerge from the nest in large numbers they are said to swarm. The pre-reproductives are called swarmer at this time.

How can you differentiate between termites and ants swarmer?
You can determine if a winged insect is a swarmer ant or a termite in a few different ways, though they are similar in size. Ants have a pinched-in waistline, antennae with a bend in the middle and two long and two short wings. Termites have fairly straight sides, antennae that are flexible along their entire length and appear either straight or slightly curved, and wings that are fairly equal in length. Swarmer ants are usually larger than the worker ants from their colony.

Where do the swarmers come from?
The swarmers likely come from a nearby underground nest. If most of the insects are found outdoors, then the nest is likely somewhere in your yard, possibly near an old tree stump or landscape timbers. If you find most of the swarmers indoors, then you quite likely have an infestation under/in your home or business.

What does happen to these swarmer?
In most cases, the swarmer simply die if they cannot escape from your house. They may be attracted to light and die on window sills or open areas. 

Do the swarmers of  termites cause any damage to house?
They do not cause any structural damage to your house. Termites swarmer are a nuisance particularly when swarms occur indoors.
