🐜 TERMITE FACT #2 - SCHEDORHINOTERMES S. intermedius

That old tree stump in your yard could be more than an eyesore! 🌳

Schedorhinotermes intermedius commonly nests in tree stumps and around the root crowns of trees.

It can also establish colonies in buried timber and other suitable locations around properties.

That's why old stumps and buried wood are worth keeping in mind when assessing termite risk.

🐜 TERMITE FACT #1 - SCHEDORHINOTERMES S. INTERMEDIUS

**Did you know this termite has TWO different sizes of soldiers?** 😲

*Schedorhinotermes intermedius* has major and minor soldiers.

The larger soldiers have noticeably bulbous heads, while the smaller soldiers have narrower heads and more slender jaws.

Both belong to the colony's defence force!

🔎 It's one of the physical features specialists use to help identify this termite species.

🐜 TERMITE FACT #5 - Not every termite has the same job.

Coptotermes acinaciformis colonies have specialised castes, including workers and soldiers.

The soldiers have large, sickle-shaped mandibles designed for defence rather than feeding.

Their job?

🛡️ Protect the colony.

It's one of the fascinating things about termites — what looks like a simple group of insects is actually a highly organised society where different members have very different roles.

🐜 TERMITE FACT #4 - COPTOTERMES ACINACIFORMIS

Termite colonies can become enormous.

Queens of some subterranean termite species can produce thousands of eggs every day, and mature colonies can contain up to millions of termites.

That tiny termite you spotted?

It could be part of a much, much bigger operation. 😳

🐜 A termite colony isn't just a handful of insects — it's a highly organised society with workers, soldiers and reproductives.

🐜 TERMITE FACT #3 - COPTOTERMES ACINACIFORMIS

A termite nest isn't necessarily underground.

Coptotermes acinaciformis can establish nests in different locations, including soil, dead timber and living trees.

Some Coptotermes species also construct distinctive mound nests, with hard outer walls and an inner structure made from soil and termite-produced material.

🌳🏠 So the presence of termites doesn't automatically tell you where their colony is hiding.

Finding the activity is one thing. Finding the source is another.

🐜 TERMITE FACT #2 - COPTOTERMES ACINACIFORMIS

Termites have their own underground highway system.

Coptotermes acinaciformis is a subterranean termite, meaning its workers generally travel through protected underground galleries or enclosed mud workings.

These tunnels help protect them from drying out and from predators while they search for food.

🏠 That's one reason termite activity can be happening around a home without being obvious.

🔎 The termites may be hidden from view — until they reach the timber.

🐜 TERMITE FACT #1

Coptotermes acinaciformis is a subterranean termite found throughout Queensland and is recognised as one of the species responsible for significant timber damage.

They usually remain hidden underground or within enclosed galleries, only entering buildings through protected routes.

🚨 YOUR HOME COULD BE BEING EATEN FROM THE INSIDE. 🐜

You might not see them.
You might not hear them.
And by the time you notice the damage… it could already be extensive.

Termites can quietly destroy timber while everything on the outside looks perfectly normal.

⚠️ Don’t wait for the damage to reveal itself.

🔎 Book a termite inspection with Humbug Termite & Pest Management and find out what’s happening before termites have the chance to cause costly damage.
