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.
