Termite Eggs

Just like plenty of other insects, the termite is reproduced thru the laying and hatching of eggs. In contrast to the common male / female dynamic that we, as humans, know, the queen of the termite colony can become impregnated with eggs from multiple colony members just so the society is kept going. Put simply, termites are not monogamous.
At maturity, a queen termite can lay a few thousands of eggs every single day. In some species of termites, the queen will really be ready to add an additional set of ovaries which will produce even more eggs leading to an enlarged stomach with increased fecundity which is the facility to make more eggs and produce more offspring.
Just like humans, queen termites will increase in size to just about 100 the times of her ordinary size. In the time of pregnancy when the female termite is full of eggs, she's effectively immobilized as is expected. What's a little funny about the pregnant queen termite is that while she's immobilized, she should employ the "manpower" of the employee termites to move her. Actually if she wishes to move from one place to another, it can take tons of employee termites simply to move her 1 or 2 inches. The better news for those employee termites is that their reward is a juice that's secreted from the queen's posterior. That is right, they're rewarded with a juice the queen termite gives them to drink which refreshes them and gives them something to anticipate. When termite eggs first hatch, they take the shape of sprites, which at last turn into different members of the termite colony. The biggest part of the termite colony is made of employee termites.
The wingless employee termites are blind and most sure to be found in termite plagued wood. Infantryman termites are sterile, wingless, blind termites whose only purpose is to protect the termite colony. Termite colonies also contain winged reproductives and extra reproductives all of which produce termite eggs. Winged reproductives use their swarm intelligence to swarm to a new location during swarm season, where they lost their wings and pair up to start a new termite colony. Extra reproductives serve as substitutes for the termite king or termite queen should one of them die. Sadly , termite eggs are produced at a worrying rate and 1 or 2 termites can reproduce into hundreds inside one or two days of time. At this point, those termite eggs begin to grow and then begin their eradication on your structures and / or crops.
