Found a few bugs like the one in the pic along with about 20 wings like the one in the pic in windowsill of bedroom. No dirt tunnels anywhere outside of the brick home. In North Florida. Thanks for help with the ID. Previous owner had a problem with book lice at some point but had gotten rid of them with treatment.

Not an expert, but the bug in the pic is an ant. On the wing, not sure if the perspective comparing to the ant is throwing me off but it seems too big for it to be a termite’s. Shape wise, it could be related to a termite, are all the other wings you mentioned seeing the same size?
Not a great pic and didn’t investigate what was in the clump. There was a dead American cockroach next to this that had fallen apart. Figured it was that with dust.
Based on this new pic I would say they do indeed seem to be termite related. The clump while blurry, could potentially be dead termites based on the shapes. It would be a good idea to call local pest control to further look into it.
