Default Termites!

I know people who keep really odd things, for example, giant earwigs(!), slugs, and roaches, and I know that there is a market for ants, but I was wondering if you had ever heard of anyone that had kept termites?

Not wanting any!

Just curious to know if they have ever been available anyplace you have seen?

Really..?

Sheesh.

Cannot think who, perhaps outside a zoo, would wish to keep them.

And if they get out, they eat the joints in yer house, and it all falls down!

In the wild, they can make massive mounds, quite impressive..
