Termites belong to the genus Isoptera, a subclass of insects that have wings. They are one of the world's oldest creatures. They love temperature and live in damp, dark environments。The larvae of termites are called Ruoant, which refers to all the young ants from the hatching of termite eggs to the third instar before differentiation into worker or soldier ants。Some species lack worker ants and are replaced by ants。It looks half like an ant, half like a maggot, and if you don't look hard, you kind of look like a maggot。
 

 

Termites look similar to ants, but the color is relatively light, and many people mistakenly think that it is "white ants", but in fact, termites and ants are two completely different organisms, the only similarity is a high degree of socialization。Inside a termite nest, there are hundreds to millions of termites, and within this colony, there is a tight class and organization。A termite colony usually begins with the wedding flight of a pair of reproductive ants。Male and female ants lay eggs after mating, and the eggs hatch into larvae, and worker ants appear, responsible for nesting, road building, feeding, water transport, egg protection and feeding, etc., when the military ants responsible for guarding appear, it is generally considered that a termite colony is complete。
 

 

Termite larvae all look the same, so what determines whether an egg becomes a soldier, a worker, or a fertile breeder？

 

According to Hanlink Termite Control Company, this is a regulation of eggs in the development process, and it is generally believed that the chemical pheromone secreted by the queen ant plays a role。

Hanling pest control share termite control methods:
First, where termite hazards are found, try to find ant nests or ant paths。First of all, the ant killing powder can be sprayed to the termites in the ant nest or the ant road as far as possible, so that they can infect each other with toxicity and achieve the effect of eradication。
Second, in the place where the harm of termites is found, the wooden door and window frame are drilled at a certain distance, and the surrounding soil is sprayed at the same time, so that the wood and soil contain certain pharmaceutical ingredients, and the termites will be poisoned and die。
Third, the method of trapping, can be found in the termite hazard place to set up trapping piles, trapping pits, trapping piles, trapping bait and so on。The above three methods can be used alone or in combination。In addition, there are fumigation methods, such as hot gas killing methods in foreign countries, which have also achieved good results to a certain extent。There are many ways to control termites, but based on the actual situation and previous experience, specific measures should be taken to control termites。
