Termite swarm risk in Mount Airy, NC

Surry County

Low swarm risk

Termites here swarm mainly in Mar–Jun, and that season has passed for this year. Swarms are seasonal, so warm, humid weather on its own won't set one off until the window comes back around.

Which termites swarm in Mount Airy, and when

Subterranean termite

Swarms Mar–May

Swarms on warm spring days, usually in daylight and often within a day or two of rain, as the soil warms.

Drywood termite

Swarms Mar–Jun

Needs no soil contact, so flights come straight out of dry structural wood. In the Southeast, Gulf, and Florida it swarms at night in spring and early summer; in California and Arizona it swarms on warm late-summer and fall days.
