Eastern subterranean termite
''Reticulitermes flavipes,'' the eastern subterranean termite is the most common termite found in North America.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Eastern Subterranean Termites Fact Sheet )〕 These termites are the most economically important wood destroying insects in the United States and are classified as pests.〔 They feed on cellulose material such as the structural wood in buildings, wooden fixtures, paper, books and cotton. A mature colony can range from 20,000 workers to as high as 5 million workers and the primary queen of the colony lays 5,000 to 10,000 eggs per year to add to this total.〔
==Distribution==
The eastern subterranean termite is the most widely distributed termite found in the eastern United States. ''R. flavipes'' is commonly found in Southern Ontario, and is found in all the eastern states including Texas.〔
Other termites found there are the dark southeastern subterranean termite (''Reticulitermes virginicus'') and the light southereastern subterranean termite (''Reticulitermes hageni''). These are less important economically (such as in damage to crops) because of their more limited range.〔
