Do drywood termites belong to the family "Kalotermitidae"?

Drywood termites are indeed classified under the family Kalotermitidae. This family is known for its members that do not require contact with soil and typically infest dry wood, including structural timber and furniture, unlike other termite families that usually rely on moisture from soil. Kalotermitidae contains species that can survive on wood alone, making them structurally significant pests in buildings.

Understanding the nature of drywood termites within the context of their family allows pest control professionals to develop effective management strategies tailored to their unique behaviors. In contrast, the other options do not accurately reflect the scientific classification of drywood termites. They do not specifically categorize them based on their behavior or environment but rather suggest conditions or exceptions that are not relevant to their taxonomic classification.
