Hi, could somebody please tell me my final missing answer:

35ac) A more efficient shelter for termites, primarily-should keep this out? (8)

From the letters I have it looks like it should be "anteater" but I have no idea why.

a n-T-eater

more efficient= neater
a neater
termites initially=T
therefore anteater

sorry termites primarily=T
and sorry ixion ,you got there before me

Thank you both. It seems so obvious now.
