Do Termites Fly? What are those flying insects attracted to light in rainy season.ఉసుళ్ళుEesal दीमक

Yes termites fly for a short period of time before losing their wings, but not all the termites can fly.

A termite colony is split into groups known as castes. Each caste has a particular role in the colony. The 4 castes of a termite colony are:

Termite king & queen
Workers
Soldiers
Alates / flying termites / winged termites (also known as laron by Indonesians

Alates being the only ones equipped with wings can fly. These are the only termites which are sexually developed and are the future kings and queens of the next season’s termite colonies. The flying patterns and habits of termites are known as swarms.
Flying termites attracted to light. We’ve all seen this very often in everyday life – after a rain shower, we found that a group flying insect start to swarm closer to sources of light like street lamps or your home’s fluorescent lights.

After a couple of minutes, this group of flying insects have discarded their wings and start to crawl without their wings around on the floor for an unspecified time before they eventually die.
