So i found this insect near my bed. Probably found its way inside my home due to the rain. Anybody have any ideas what it is? Just curious to know what kind of insect it is. I live in the Philippines, near metro manila postimg.cc/image/oejrq1rtj/

It's a termite that flew to your house and then shed its wings. We have masses of these flying around here (Chiang Mai, Thailand) in May when the rains start. They emerge from termite mounds and mainly fly around soon after dark. They are strongly attracted to light and will find a way into your house through small openings at the windows or doors. They look for a mate and then run around in pairs searching for a place to start a new termite mound.
