Southern Serenity Fort Myers Beach

09/14/2026

🏠 You may notice Southern Serenity looking a little different this week—it’s temporarily under a tent for professional termite treatment.

In Southwest Florida’s warm, humid climate, termites are a fact of life. Tenting isn’t a sign that a home has been neglected; it’s an important preventive step that helps protect the home and keep it in excellent condition for years to come.

Personally caring for Southern Serenity means addressing maintenance thoroughly—even when the process looks a little dramatic from the outside.

Crazy how long they take to put up and how quickly they can tear them down. We bid farewell to the little blue house next door.

🔥 **If you see smoke near Southern Serenity, don’t be alarmed**

Fort Myers Beach firefighters have been using the hurricane-damaged home next door to Southern Serenity for hands-on training this summer, including controlled burns and emergency-response exercises. It’s an unusual sight, but also a valuable opportunity for local crews to train in realistic conditions.

We snapped a few photos of the activity nearby. 🚒👨‍🚒🔥
