Marigold Termites?
I plant Marigolds around a lot of my plants to help control insects. I found one today laying over and cut off at ground level. When I picked it up and looked at the end of the stem there were 4 or 5 termite looking creatures about the diameter of a toothpick and about a quarter inch long chewing on the stem. They are off white with dark marks on or in its abdomen. Anyone have an idea about what they are?
