Help!! Dead termites in the pool!!!

OK, I don't know whether to be grateful or horrified. But there were about 100 dead-with-wings-still-on-them termites floating in my pool today. So were they swarming from somewhere else, trying to get to my house -- and got stymied (and killed) by the presence of our new pool?? That would be good news, I guess - my pool acting as a barrier and protecting my house! Or, do swimming pools attract termites somehow? That, of course, would be bad. I don't think they originated from my house, which was recently inspected and found to be termite-free. But here's the thing: do pools attract termites or do they deter them? Maybe I should just call out the termite people and find out?
