1) I could do that too, if I had a hundred thousand slaves.
2) Termites DIE in my environment.
3) Humans most certainly CAN come near that level of sophistication. 
There are boson detectors which are kept at a billionth of a degree of 
above absolute zero, in order to detect a change of a billionth of a 
degree, indicating a detection.  Let's see termites do that!
