Hi Gregg,
I second what you`ve said about the info crocdoc2 has offered, I also have the article by D.B. Carter, and the whole publication, and it`s NOT the only one on the subject.
I too have seen the openings on the side of termite mounds on a number of ocassions in Australia, and believe many WERE dug by Lace monitors.
As has been stated, it would be a serious offense to start breaking them open to check for eggs/hatchlings, so I`ve never done that...
Crocdoc`s information might also encourage the keepers of other known regular termite nesters such as niloticus, exanthematicus etc, to place "on top of substrate nest boxes", which might prove a to be a success there, too?
