Fascinating Insects : Insects are Important Decomposers of Rotting Plant Material

Friendly greetings to all friends in the world. I found insects gathered or in very large groups. This insect does not stop continuing to walk and circle around. When I photographed this insect, of course it was very difficult. Because after I took the photo, it turned out that a lot of the images were blurry.
Maybe this insect is called Termite. Termite is a species of insect from the family Mastotermitidae. Insects belonging to the eusocial detritophagous group. Insects that feed on various types of rotting plant material, generally in the form of wood, leaf litter and soil humus.

The success of the Termite as a group has led to them colonizing almost all of the global landmass, with the highest diversity. They are important decomposers of decaying plant material in subtropical and tropical regions of the world, and their recycling of wood and plant material is of considerable ecological importance.

@teungkulik The termite ball. I remember, during a trip, seeing masonry galleries on the walls of buildings. When we scraped off some of the wood pulp made by the termites, we saw a column that kept coming back.
