Termites are silent invaders that can cause thousands of dollars in damage before you even realize they’re there. Unlike other pests, they don’t make noise, they don’t leave obvious signs at first, and they work 24/7, eating away at the structure of your home. That’s why March—Termite Awareness Month—is the perfect time to check for these destructive insects and take action before it’s too late.
The Termite Swarm Begins in March
There Are More Termites Than People—and They’re on the Move!
March is Termite Awareness Month: Why Are Termites a Big Problem in Aruba?
I. The Termite Swarm Begins in March
Aruba’s warm climate and high humidity make it a paradise not just for tourists, but for termites too.
March marks the beginning of termite swarming season, when reproductive termites take flight in search of new nesting spots, making them more visible than usual. The island’s warm, humid climate and moist soil allow termite colonies to expand rapidly. Since termites cause millions of florins in property damage each year, early detection is crucial to avoid costly repairs and structural damage.
II. There Are More Termites Than People—And They’re on the Move!
For every person on Earth, there are at least 1,000 pounds of termites! These insects have been around for 250 million years, and they’ve perfected the art of silent destruction. Termites work 24/7 to eat away at wooden structures, floors, and furniture—and they could already be inside your home without you knowing it.
With March marking the start of termite swarming season, reproductive termites leave their colonies searching for new nesting sites. This means the risk of infestation is higher than ever, and if they find their way to your property, they can start a new colony before you even notice the signs.
That’s why you can’t afford to wait. Termites work fast, and early detection is the key to preventing costly damage. Act now with Professional Pest Control’s help!

III. March is Termite Awareness Month: Why Are Termites a Big Problem in Aruba?
Are you aware of the damage termites can cause to your home or business? It’s essential to understand why termites are a major threat in Aruba. The island’s warm, humid climate provides the perfect environment for termites to thrive year-round, making infestations more common and harder to control.
The biggest problem? Most termite damage goes unnoticed until it becomes severe, leading to expensive repairs that are often not covered by insurance. Since termites hide inside walls, floors, and wooden structures, infestations can remain undetected for years.
