man the termites swarming in Mukdahan tonight

seems they are small ones,not the big ones that loss their wings

maybe the big ones will come out later

Are you sure they are termites?

I'm 108 kilometers West of Mukdahan and it's the same here.

Any more photos bring back some memories from a few years ago

yea,here's some from couple of years ago

that make you happy?

Hot season is coming

They are indeed termites.

Annoying buggers when sitting outside.

Same every year in Nakhon Phanom.......I didnt know they were termites. I always thought they were moths.......They swarm then die.......probably something to do with mating...........Anyone know? It always puzzles me why nothing else feeds on them when they swarm, such as bats......protein going to waste. I wonder if maybe they are poisonous. I think they must be or they would be on sale as a snack in the night market.....lol

we have lady's here, out at night sweeping up the big one's to cook up and sell in the morning market

wife likes them,their not bad with sticky rice,they have kind of tart taste

Mate and die, that's the way to go. Hardly ever had any problems with my wooden bits being attacked, but worth keeping an eye on. (Chaindrite cockroach and termite spray).

keep having the house sprayed but can't get rid of the buggers, somebody said they used cheap wood that was already infected when they built the houses

I remember back in the UK when i was a kid,that on a certain day in June,we would be inundated with flying Ants.It was only one day of the year.I remember

that the Ants would land and 'drop' their wings.I was told that these were female Ants that where they lost their wings,was where they were meant to

a new colony.My dad said they were called 'Aphid's' It happened virtually on the same day/night every year.There were millions of them.Years later,i was playing

pool in an open air bar in Pattaya outskirts.Suddenly the pool table was covered with these flying things,dropping wings everywhere.I thought they were Ants and that Thailand had the same thing,as the UK.Can someone tell me what they were.Now, i don't know if they were Ants or Termites.

Thanks for any news on this in advance.
