Termites are social insects that eat wood and cellulose-rich materials. They live in earth mounds or ground galleries that can reach several meters high. While termites are considered pests as they feed voraciously on wood and paper in tropical regions, they also provide ecological benefits by recycling dead plant matter and wood through detritivory, which is important for subtropical and tropical ecosystems.
