In Magnolia, pests follow the weather. Termites swarm on warm days from late winter into spring, fire ants and mosquitoes surge after spring rains, cockroaches and mosquitoes peak in the humid summer and tropical storm season, and rodents move indoors when fall and winter cold fronts arrive. Mild winters mean few pests ever fully disappear.

In Southeast Texas, native (Eastern) subterranean termites swarm in daylight on warm days from late winter through spring, often after rain. Formosan subterranean termites swarm at dusk in late spring, typically late May into June, and fly toward lights.

Fire ants don't multiply after rain; they move. Soaked soil floods their underground tunnels, so workers carry brood upward and pile fresh soil into new or rebuilt mounds within a day or two. That is why yards in Magnolia seem to 'explode' with mounds after a storm. The fix is bait applied once the ground dries.
