Just had a scare here in the woodpile. Saw a bunch of dead ants that looked like termites. Turns out Flying ants are mistaken for termites quite a bit.
Termites have straight antennae, Ants have a "bent" (nearly 90 degrees) antennae
Ants have a skinny abdomen, termites have a straight abdomen. Just some quick info, that i looked up. Hopefully it will help someone else.
This really scared me after last week I cut down a bunch of elm that was full of "wood boring insects." Little white grub like things that were in the bark. I still dont know what they are/were.
