Termite damages are hideous but have the potential to cause damage to the extent of collapsing a building. These are serious pests that are capable of causing serious damage to buildings and other materials whose monetary value is huge. They mainly feed on wood, but also books, papers, swimming pool liners, and insulations can’t escape from their damage.

There are different types of termites, which are listed below:

· Subterranean termites – This species lives underground in colonies or moist secluded areas. They build ‘mud tubes' connecting them from their colonies to the food source, and to avoid exposing themselves to open air.

· Formosan termites – These are the most aggressive, destructive of the species. They live underground and build an intricate mud nest inside the structure they inflict. It is due to their aggressiveness they are very difficult to control and manage.

· Dampwood termites – This species live woods having high moisture content and usually do not infest woods with low moisture content, but care must be taken that they do not infest any structure. These are larger in size than any other of the species.

· Drywood termites – This is unlike Formosan and subterranean termites, and does not require any contact with soil. This can be found to have infested dead woods or wooden wall support and roof materials.
