Barbara Thompson-Gauld on Feb 11, 2015Sounds like termites. I would catch a few and put them in a jar, call one of the extermination companies that come and do free inspections and estimates just to be sure of what you are dealing with. I know from experience that termites are winged when they go through the swarming stage. sorry to say they can be terribly destructive and can do some major damage to your home.Helpful Reply
