Around this time of the year, here in Thailand we have termites that grow wings and fly around happy as can be. They are attracted to light and so when night falls, you must be sure your door is closed and all the cracks are sealed because once you turn the light on inside, they will crawl through trying to get in. It takes but a day for them to die and then as you walk out in the morning, there are just piles of them everywhere. So the Akha pick them up and pluck off their wings, fry and eat them as a treat. Oh, doesn't that just sound lovely; makes ya hungry, mmm!
