Sand Castle
Pictured here is a colossal termite mound built by (surprise, surprise) mound-building termites. The King and Queen of the termite colony live in luxury underground while the “working-class’ termites labor to create this impressive structure. A termite mound of this size is the equivalent of humans building a structure that reached six miles into the air! Like everything else in Australia, don’t wander too close to an active termite mound as the soldier termites deal a painful bite, and there won’t be just one out to get you.

It seems there is no shortage of terrifying, unwelcome guests in Australian homes. Someone should start asking these invasive creatures to pay rent. Luckily for the homeowner in this picture, they had the lights on when they discovered this creepy-crawler in their kitchen. Imagine going to pop some popcorn for a movie late at night. You don’t bother turning the lights on, as you’ve done this a million times before, and you reach out to grab the microwave door…. Are your hairs standing on end yet?
