Termite Identifier: Swarm

About

Termite swarmers mean a problem inside the walls. Flying ants mean nothing. Photograph the insect — or just the shed wings left on the windowsill — and get a straight answer in seconds, or an honest "not sure" when the photo can't carry one. ▸ TWO WAYS TO ASK Most identifiers need an organism. A shed wing isn't one. • The insect — photograph the swarmer itself, waist and antennae in frame • Just the wings — lay two or three flat and photograph those alone, no insect needed • Four equal wings means termite. Two unequal pairs means ant. The wings carry that on their own ▸ A STRAIGHT ANSWER, OR AN HONEST "NOT SURE" Two independent vision models read your photo, and they have to agree. • TERMITE, FLYING ANT or NOT SURE — never a coin flip • See how each check decided — antennae, waist and wing shape, on your own photo • NOT SURE tells you what to photograph next • A scale reference is required before every check, because a 2 mm booklouse and a 10 mm termite swarmer look identical in a close-up ▸ WHAT AN INSPECTOR LOOKS FOR — ALWAYS FREE One insect is one data point. Walk the house with the five signs that turn a maybe into a yes. • Mud tubes on foundations, walls and joists • Frass — gritty pellets like coarse sawdust • Blistered paint with no water source • Hollow-sounding wood at skirting and window frames • Piles of shed wings on windowsills and near light fittings Photograph and note each one. The checklist is never paywalled. ▸ SWARM CALENDAR FOR YOUR AREA Termites fly on a schedule. Enter a ZIP code and know yours. • Species windows — eastern subterranean Apr–May, dark southeastern Jun, light southeastern Jul–Sep, Formosan May at night, drywood Sep–Nov • Your local termite pressure zone, and what it means • One notification about a week before your window opens ▸ WHAT THIS IS NOT An identification aid, not an inspection. A TERMITE or NOT SURE result is a reason to call a licensed inspector, and the app links you to one. Your photo is processed in the cloud and deleted as soon as the answer comes back. ▸ FREE AND PREMIUM Three identifications free, forever.
