Identifying termites in New Braunfels
Pale cream, soft-bodied insects 1/8" – 1/4" long. Swarmers have equal-length wings and straight antennae (vs. ants' bent antennae).
Behavior & habitat
Subterranean termites build mud tubes from soil up to wood. Formosan termites, common in Central Texas, form massive carton nests inside wall voids. Colonies can contain millions of insects and consume a foot of 2x4 in months.
Why termites are a problem here
Termites cause an estimated $5 billion in property damage annually in the U.S. — and homeowner's insurance does not cover it. Damage compounds quickly and silently.
New Braunfels seasonal outlook: Termite activity is strongest after warm spring rains, when subterranean colonies swarm and establish new routes.
Why New Braunfels homes get termites
New Braunfels sits in Comal & Guadalupe Counties, where long triple-digit summers, mild winters, and sudden heavy rain give termites a nearly year-round runway. Irrigation cycles, shaded landscaping, and standing moisture keep termite activity high even when the yard looks dry, which is why our New Braunfels programs run on a schedule instead of a single visit.
Where they get in around here
On New Braunfels routes, our technicians track termite activity back to ground-to-wood contact along porch posts and fence returns, plumbing penetrations that run straight into wall voids, untreated perimeter zones where a liquid barrier has never been placed, and moisture-heavy areas behind gutters and downspouts. We treat those pressure points directly — targeted perimeter applications, void treatments, monitored bait or trapping placements, and exclusion work — so the population drops instead of shifting a few feet down the wall.
“Most New Braunfels termite calls we run aren't a mystery — the conditions are right and nobody closed the gaps. We find the pressure point, treat it, then come back and verify. If it moves again, so do we, on our dime.”
Signs of a termite problem
- • Mud tubes on foundation walls or piers
- • Hollow-sounding wood when tapped
- • Discarded wings near windows after a swarm (often spring)
- • Bubbling or warped paint that looks like water damage
- • Frass (sawdust-like droppings) near wood members
