text: Although Formosan termites are a “subterranean termite,” meaning that they nest and forage primarily in the soil just like eastern subterranean termites, they are much more likely to establish aerial nests, especially if they have a ready source of aboveground moisture due to water leaks.
text: This is significant because once termites establish an aerial nest, (Figure 10) they no longer have to return to the soil to obtain moisture and can become separate and independent from the mother colony.
text: In most cases, aerial nests only become established when termites foraging back and forth from the soil encounter an aboveground source of moisture and then establish an aerial nest, which can eventually grow to become independent of the parent colony and survive without the need to obtain moisture from the ground.
