Detecting Wood-Destroying Organisms Around Fort Myers
Wood-destroying organisms are pests responsible for causing structural issues and furniture damage. In order to come up with a lasting solution to the potential damage they could cause, you need a WDO inspection. Detecting a termite problem or other wood-destroying pest infestation in its earliest stages is key to getting ahead of a large scale infestation.
If you want to effectively identify all termite activity around your Fort Myers home or business, we recommend getting a professional WDO inspection. Stat Pest Control is your local termite inspection company, and we have the knowledge and expertise to detect termite activity and other wood-destroying insects from the very first signs of activity.
Residential & Commercial WDO Inspections
When it comes to recognizing signs of termites inside your house or detecting other wood-destroying organisms around your property, it’s not easy to do on your own. That’s why professional WDO inspections are the best way to go.
Here at Stat Pest Control, we are proud to provide both residential and commercial WDO inspections in Fort Myers and the surrounding areas. We offer two different types of WDO inspections:
Complete WDO Inspections
This type of inspection involves inspecting only visible and accessible areas of the building.
Limited WDO Inspections
This type of inspection involves inspecting a specific section, i.e., the living room or kitchen.
Depending on the type of WDO inspection you want, we will customize our approach to meet your specific needs. We always cover the main problem areas where these types of pests often congregate.
There are often three sections in the WDO report as follows:
- Section 1 contains items with clear indications of an active infestation. For instance, if you have fungal damage on your bathroom floor, this is the section to fill it in.
- Section 2 contains items that will likely lead to infestations, such as earth-to-wood contact, a leaking pipe, or a cracked foundation.
- Section 3 – Contains items recommended to receive proper attention. It will also have recommended treatments to prevent infestations in the future.
All our team members have extensive training in performing comprehensive WDO inspections. Call Stat Pest Control today to learn more.
Preparing For A Professional WDO Inspection
Before we arrive for our service, there are some ways in which the property owners can prepare for their inspection. Here are some of the things that will make your WDO inspection go smoothly.
- Home rearrangement: If you have anything stored in your sinks, move them elsewhere. Also, check around water sources for any termite activity. Rearrange your garage and move any item you store against the walls at least two feet away from the wall.
- Clear all crawl spaces: If you have a raised foundation, make room for the inspector to get to the crawl space in your home. If you have any items that may block those spaces, clear them out.
- Make your attic accessible: Remove anything that could block the attic and prevent proper inspection.
- Take care of your landscaping: Make sure to trim all plants that could conceal the walls and foundation.
