Termites
Understanding Termites
In Springfield, PA we have one species of termite. Reticulitermes flavipes, are a type of subterranean termite, meaning they move back and forth from the soil to the wood structure they are feeding on. Termites are insects with bodies divided into two parts, have six legs, and are usually white in color. These destructive pests need certain conditions to survive.
Moist soil is crucial for these pests. Termites need a water supply in order to construct mud tubes to protect them from predators. The mud tubes or “runners” that one sees are the pathways used to access their food supply.
Termites always remain in contact with the soil unless there is an above-ground water supply.
