Polyester-mites

Every spring around the first of April in the south , those of us with boats and/or RVs must start watching for signs of the polyester mites that attack the fiberglass portions of their vehicle . Watch for very small glass particles underneath very similar to termite residue . If found check with local exterminators . These infestations usually begin about April first .

Would hourly inspections be sufficient?
