When I saw them rising in the sunshine, I thought it was meal moth season again. But they have long clear wings. They were rising up by the hundreds. Late summer, I thought there were maggots in my Doggy Dooley 'septic' system. I've used these things for over a decade with no problems. I covered them with dirt but long things kept appearing. They are termites I guess.
