Have you seen them branch off into thin air like this before? I always see them running along a surface.

They may do that if the mud lacks moisture & up they go!
They have no clue, they’re working blind.

Unlike many pests, termites rely on other senses more than eyesight to interact with the world around them. In fact, termites use their eyes so little that some are even born without them. While termite kings, queens, and reproductives have small, weak eyes, workers and soldiers are entirely blind
