Summer is here again and that means very hot weather here in my tropical country. Even though that means sandy beaches, tropical fruits and never-ending beach parties, it also means that a lot more things crop up during these times.

One of those things, are termites. Now I don’t know how or why they crop up during the summer, but they do scare the wits out of me. I once read this kids encyclopedia with pictures regarding insects and there was a picture of a termite lair with the queen right in the middle. Something like this. Oh, god.

*a moment of silence while she shudders in horror*

Now, imagine something like that living in your home. *screams bloody murder* I hate termites. Good thing there was a scheduled termite-extermination team for our compound. They went through each and every house, every nook and cranny to get to those pests. I remember there were termites between the walls of my brother’s room! O_O

I’m not sure what the pest control group was called, but in America I supposed they could be a group like Terminix which specializes in pest control. My hats off to you guys. I can’t get even near the scary things. >.>
