Spring Termite Swarms
Warm spring rains trigger subterranean termite swarms across Apex. Winged termites emerge to find new nesting sites, often targeting moist wood near your home's foundation. Inspect your foundation walls and crawlspace piers for mud tubes, which termites use to travel safely from the soil to your wood structure. Keep mulch piles, firewood, and soil at least six inches below your siding, and fix any exterior water leaks to avoid creating the damp conditions termites crave. In North Carolina, subterranean termites are highly active, making annual professional inspections a critical safeguard for your property.
