This is the Alpine termite, which likes to eat wood, but is equally happy to munch its way through stone, which is why many of the mountains in Switzerland are so ragged.
Best not to bring alpine termites into the house, if you can help it. | |

Serious, they eat the mountains? How big are these things. This is stuff sci-fi films are made of. The local will be reporting on this soon. Headline. '500Kg termite attacks alpine cows'.
