#termite fact

[wisdumbness]

I am uncomfortable with this fact, so now you have to be too

below content refers to bugs

so, termites live unreasonably long.

a worker and soldier termite lives 1-2 years. Pretty decent.

a reproductive termite lives 5 years, okay, surprised but understandable.

THE QUEEN CAN LIVE TO BE OVER A DECADE AND SOME SPECIES LIVE TO BE 50! I am not okay with this. I’m glad that I can still outlive an insect but I don’t like how it can outlive most pets. Also, a termite queen can reach 4-6 inches in length. So that’s nice.
