One of the questions we get asked a lot is, “What is the difference between a flying ant and a termite?” There are a few ways to tell the difference. First, winged termites have a straight waist and straight antennae. Their two sets of wings are equal in size and those wings are shed soon after they emerge from their nest, or swarm. Winged termites usually swarm in the early Spring, when it is warm and rainy.

Flying ants have skinny waists and bent antennae and are often mistaken for swarming termites. Unlike termites, when comparing flying ants’ two sets of wings, one set is larger than the other. Depending on their species, flying ants will swarm at different times of the year.
