Termite swarms in Mason City typically occur March through June, triggered by warm rain events when soil temperatures reach 65°F+. Swarmers are often the first visible sign of an infestation.
Signs include mud tubes along foundations, hollow-sounding wood, discarded wings near windows, and frass (termite droppings). Damage is often hidden — annual inspections are strongly recommended.
