Termites

We spoke about termites yesterday with one of our team members. I remembered I recently took a picture of their habitats in desert and would like to share it with you:
 Now, think of what they can do to your home. 
Update on termites: when I noticed the comment by this post left by Melissa I realized that I did not mention that termites are good for the Earth. They do not damage the live plants, they are practically working as a cleaners by removing the dead wood from the face of planet. So everything in nature a special purpose and it works in harmony. The unfortunate thing is that they do not know the difference between the wood in your house and a dead tree on the ground.

You have to admit that they are magnificent creatures, though.

So cool! I've never seen this kind of branch-structures made by termites! I always assumed they build big pyramid-like structures in the wild, as seen on nature channels :)
