I found what it looks like dry wood termites in my patio..we just bought our home in jan.?

if its out side , then its wood borer bees, not termites they can,t stand the sun

just get some bug spray and spray the area

Individual dryood colonies are tiny, with only a few hundred termites at best compared with say 200,000 for subterraneans. Sometimes there is nothing to see at the inspection. Especially if someone has temporarily plugged the holes and re-painted the wood. Termitecolonies strtwith 2 termites and may take many months or years to be big enough to spot.

Collect the feces and either have it identified orr look at i under a microscope. It may be from something else that's hiding there, like ants, beetles or pill bugs.

Call the inspction guy, tell him of your concerns ad ask him to (at no charge) come and check it out.

If it is a small colony of drywoods, a two-part spot treatment like a boron product that can kill both insects and the inevitable decay fungi. Ask your inspector to use his TermaTrac or moisture meter to detect whether there are any unusually damp spots that may indicate problems.

You might NOT have Termites- YET ! Termites usually "swarm"- in April. And THAT's when the new "Queens"- start looking for new "Homes" to branch out In. It sounds to Me that what You're seeing -is a NEW collection of Them- that are just in the process of Moving In !! So go to your Nearest Hardware Store- & buy a few cans of "Raid"- & spray ALL the Affected Areas you can Find- with the Stuff. Do this Once a Week- through June, and You should have NO further Problems ( until NEXT Spring. -When you'll have to repeat this Procedure).
