Nice pictures there, Bot. I've seen a bunch of live termites, including workers, soldiers and alates (swarmers).

I hate the little buggers. I'd like to find a way to farm them and turn them into diesel fuel. Instead, we have a pest-control guy who baits them.

As far as ant eaters, I seem to recall that they like termites. Ants seem to like them too; they carry them off in droves if you expose one to the other.

The alate that you found is present in very small percentages in a colony. They fly from the colony when certain conditions are met each spring, hoping to run into an opposite-sexed alate from another colony and start their own.
