The Lake Windsor Downs homes are covered by tents because of a termite infestation. Termites are a type of insect that can quickly destroy the wooden walls of homes. They’re considered a pest similar to bedbugs or cockroaches, and homeowners usually need to have their homes fumigated by a special termite control company in order to remove them.
The termite infestation is simply another one of the multiple problems encountered by the Lake Windsor Downs homeowners. It may not even be the worst; at this point in the novel, the neighborhood has battled muck fires, numerous lightning strikes, and a sinkhole disaster at their local school. For a fancy and expensive neighborhood, these issues seem simply ridiculous
Even though the fumigation seems like a small plot point, it’s crucial to Paul’s final triumph over Erik and Arthur. Since homeowners have to leave their houses when fumigation occurs, Erik and Arthur were able to steal valuables from the unguarded houses. When the police discover their crimes, the Fishers are no longer able to justify or ignore Erik’s wrongdoing, especially given that some of their neighbors want to send the boys to jail.
