In Texas, termites typically swarm during the warm months, primarily from late spring to early summer, with peak activity often occurring between May and June. Swarming usually happens on warm, humid days following rainfall, as these conditions create an ideal environment for reproduction. The exact timing can vary based on local climate and species of termites.
