Gnats may eventually go away on their own, but it depends on the source of their attraction. If the environment that’s attracting them—such as overwatered plants, moist areas, or food debris—isn't addressed, they can persist or even increase in numbers. Reducing moisture, improving drainage, and cleaning up organic matter can help eliminate them. Without these changes, gnats are likely to stick around and continue breeding, making it important to remove their breeding grounds to get rid of them for good.

A wasp is less likely to sting you if you remain still and calm when it lands on your or flies around you. Most wasps only sting when they feel threatened or disturbed, which is how they may interpret rapid movement or swatting. This is why it’s best to suppress movement and wait for the wasp to fly away.

Termites are active year-round in warmer areas and most active in the warmer months in cooler climates. Once termites begin causing damage, they’ll continue to destroy your wood year-round, even in cold weather. Termites tend to swarm in warm weather, but colonies can be hard at work, tunneling through your wood 365 days a year.

Depending on the size of a termite colony and how quickly it matures, it can take three to five years to see visible damage. It may take five to six years for termites to damage your home's structural integrity. Subterranean termites, which are found in all states except Alaska, are known to be particularly damaging and can cause extensive damage in as little as two years.
