I get up this morning after working all night and I see these little winged bugs all over my window. I go outside and they are all over the side of my house 😯 I’m so upset because I know its going to cost a fortune to get someone out here and spray.

Hold on…are you sure they are termites? Many kinds of ants grow wings just for a few days to mate or move and then they shed them later. Maybe they are just ants!?!

and read the whole page…it seems swarms of termites do not mean they are eating your house!

I get those winged ants inside my windows every summer. The cure is called a vacuum cleaner.

No they are termites. They are all over the side of my house and all around the vent for my dryer. I was reading how much it cost to get rid of them and I think I’m going to cry!

Sorry to hear that, purpledoggy. 🙁 Any chance they’ll go away by themselves?

Maybe if I talk real nice they will go bug someone else?

😆 If only your Windstones could go after them.

Might I suggest a counter-swarm of green anoles? Those little guys can wreck havoc on flying insects… 8)

😆 Too bad that’s not realistic. My uncle in Florida had termites and before they sprayed there were about fifty itty bitty lizards having a feast on the side of his house.

Hope you get rid of them without getting rid of all your savings!

Ugg, that stinks! We just found out we have a termite problem at my work and I think that is going to be interesting. I’ve already been anjoying a stompfest. 😈

While hiding somewhere in my head I'm on the lookout for white oriental dragons! Please let me know if you know of any available. Thank you!

Ok so I got someone out to my house to do a termite inspection and tell me if the termites are coming from my house and how much it will cost to get rid of them. The guy comes out here, asks me where I saw them and says yeah you have termites its gonna cost $750 to get rid of them. He does’t even look around my house! Just ok you saw them so that means you have them. 😕 I thought they would at least look at the walls tap on the side of the house or do something! Blah and I lost my dragon last night which is a good thing but I’m in a mood today. /sulk
