This paper presents the results of observation of mould growth in laboratory colonies of termites. It also attempts to determine the species of mould fungi present in the research laboratory and the main colonies and their entomopathogenic for the termites. The following four species were found in test termite colonies: <em>Trichoderme viride</em>, <em>Mucor</em> <em>himeralis</em>, <em>Rhizopus</em> <em>nigricans</em>, <em>Aspergillus</em> sp., <em>Aspergillus</em> <em>flavus</em>, <em>Alternaria</em> sp., <em>Penicylium</em> <em>verucosum</em> and <em>Fusarium</em> sp. were recognisable in test colonies with domestic and exotic wood. Morphological observations of the fungi were carried out using a microscope with a 40x magnification. The growth of mould fungi in test containers caused death of whole termite colonies.
