With summer on the horizon, termite season is again upon us, especially here in Galveston, where the warm climate fosters termite activity for extended periods compared to other regions. Vigilance is vital in protecting your rental property from these destructive pests. Even with preventive measures, termites can still find their way in, posing a threat to the integrity of your property’s wood structures. Maintaining year-round protection against termites is crucial for any property owner in Galveston.
Recognizing the Signs of Termite Swarms
As termite colonies reach capacity, they release alates, or termite swarmers, in search of new locations to establish colonies. This typically occurs once a year and under favorable weather conditions. If you notice swarms of flying insects congregating around your property, especially on humid, overcast days, it’s likely a termite swarm. Could you look around your house, foundation, windows, deck, or basement for signs of these swarms? While seeing flying termites doesn’t always indicate an active infestation, it could signal their presence nearby. Discarded insect wings, left behind after mating, are another telltale sign of termite activity.
