The Importance of a Pest Inspection

Based on the property damage potential that pests and insects can create, a Pest Inspection is recommended for all homes in Colorado.  General pests can enter a home and damage building materials or cause potential health concerns.

At Scott Home Inspection, a division of Scott Home Services, LLC, a Pest Inspection includes a visual review of the structure and foundation of the home for the presence of pests, insects or organisms.  The inspector will access and inspect all readily accessible areas where pests and wood destroying insects may be a concern, and will document any evidence of pests and insects as well as conditions that may be conducive to infestation.

In addition, we will inspect the interior and exterior and advise you on any preventative steps that can be taken to help prevent future infestation issues from developing.

This Pest Inspection does not include inspecting for mold, mildew, or other non-insect wood destroying organisms.

Pest Inspections are only offered as an add-on service with a general home inspection performed by Scott Home Inspection.

InterNachi-Certified WDO Inspectors 

All of our pest specialists are InterNachi-Certified Wood Destroying Organism Inspectors. So you can rest assured that, if there are any signs of WDOs on the property, we’ll be sure to find them. 

How a Pest Inspection Works:

Our Pest Inspectors will arrive at the home and begin searching for any evidence of pest, insects or organisms. We follow the guidelines created by the National Pest Management Association and the NPMA-33 inspection procedure, as well as general pest inspection. An exterior perimeter inspection is done, as well as observations of the crawlspace, basement, attic, and garage areas. The inspection includes a search for visible evidence of the following items; live insects, dead insects, shelter tubes, exit holes, staining, visible signs of wood damage, pest droppings, evidence of nesting and openings and penetrations that are not secured. We’ll also look for evidence of any past treatments performed.

Additionally we’ll look for preventive measures that can be taken to reduce future infestations, such as: wood in contact with soil, poor grading and drainage, firewood or debris stored near or inside the home, insufficient ventilation, plumbing leaks, foundation cracks, roof leaks, and standing water. Any limitations or inaccessible areas will be noted. For more consumer information on pest control and prevention visit Pest-World.
