Behavior and habits
Colonies release swarmers on warm spring days to found new colonies, often exiting indoors near windows.
Why termite swarmers are a problem
A swarm indoors means an established colony is already feeding somewhere in the structure.
How Antex handles termite swarmers
Our technicians confirm the species first, because effective control depends on it. Then we treat the source: nesting sites, harborage, and the routes onto your property, using professional products applied precisely. If pests return between scheduled visits, we'll come back and address the issue at no additional cost.
Prevention tips
Save a few specimens for identification and schedule an inspection immediately; wings alone confirm activity.
