I may be wrong, but a exterminator once told me if you transfer the compost
to another area that the termites will not survive the trip. They have to
travel underground.

Hello,

I have a compost bin, with a lot of black gold brewing in it with
worms, beetles, centipedes, millipedes and now termites. I need help
figuring out how to get rid of them. Obviously they are very happy in
the bin. I tried turning it over many times, in hopes of finding the
queen, but no luck.

How can I get rid of them without poisons? I don't want to kill all
the beneficial stuff in there, just the termites.

Thanks,

K
