Most of the time, termites like to stay concealed in moist wood or the ground where the humidity is high. That’s why the only time you’re likely to see termites is when the queen has produced flying offspring to establish other colonies. At this point, the infestation is likely quite serious. These winged reproducers are easily mistaken for winged ants, which undergo a similar life cycle.

The average flying termite is between one-quarter and three-eighths of an inch long. Their body color ranges from a white, translucent fleshy color, yellow, brown or even black. In addition, termite wings are wasp-like, smoky-colored and longer than the insect’s body. Unlike the wings of flying ants, both pairs are the same size. These flyers are commonly referred to as swarmer’s because they emerge in large numbers all at once, often after a heavy spring rain.

There are other features of termites that set them apart from ants. Termites have short, stocky legs that help support their thick waists and bulky bodies. Ants, on the other hand, have thin, wasp-like waists and long legs. Also, termite antennae are short and straight, whereas ants are long and jointed.
