"Meet my new friends, Mama!"


Foo's got new friends: Subterranean termites.

However, Foo's new friends are mighty hungry; eating non-stop—24 hours a day, seven days a week. Their hard, saw-toothed jaws help them to efficiently plow through lumber, wallpaper, plastics and plant fibers—to the tune of $2 billion of damages per year.

Mama Foo was kind of hoping Bunny would befriend a cute little puppy named Doodie instead.

Fun Fact: The total weight of all of the termites in the world is greater than the weight of all the humans in the world.

Next up: tenting and fumigating fun.
