Our WDI Inspection Process Explained
When it comes to wood-destroying insects, there is no room for oversight. When these pests are present, you need to know as soon as possible so you can take action quickly and both eliminate any current pests as well as actively improve your prevention methods. Our inspectors seek out visible signs of infestation and assess potential hotspots that are often neglected for any indications of activity or potential pest problems. This involves utilizing a blend of visual checks and cutting-edge detection tools to reveal even concealed pest threats.
Here's a look at how our process works:
- Interior examination. We carefully check all key areas of your home’s interior for potential signs of wood-destroying insect activity. We may also use specialized equipment to listen inside your walls for the sound of termites, carpenter ants, and more.
- Exterior examination. We walk the perimeter of your home to look for any potential signs of a wood-destroying insect colony, including visible droppings piles, husks, shed wings, and more.
- Supplemental structure inspection. If you have any exterior structures like a gazebo, pergola, or other wooden property features, we’ll check them for signs of WDI activity as well!
- Reporting. Once our inspection is complete, we provide you with a comprehensive report that includes detailed descriptions of our findings and our recommendations for what action to take both in the short term and for long-term protection.

How Often Should Flea or Tick Treatments Be Done?
A general recommendation for flea or tick control is to have your property thoroughly inspected once a year. However, during peak season, you may want to increase those inspections to be every two or three months for added peace of mind and to maintain control over pest populations. That being said, a pest control plan can help keep flea and tick activity to a minimum by treating potential hotspots regularly to prevent population growth. We also offer emergency services to assist with urgent matters pertaining to flea populations or tick appearances.

Are Your Pest Control Methods Safe for Pets?
Our pest control treatments are designed around products and methods that are effective, but also safe and environmentally considerate to the best of our ability. We utilize products that have been rigorously tested and approved for use around humans and animals, and our skilled technicians apply these solutions thoughtfully to minimize impacts on non-target species.

How Does Your Pest Control Process Work?
Our flea and tick control process begins with a thorough inspection of your property to identify pest-prone areas. We apply targeted treatments to these areas to disrupt any nests and hopefully help prevent any eggs from hatching (as well as eliminate any egg-laying or mature adults).
If you have an infestation indoors, we may recommend a “bug bomb” service to eliminate any that might be hiding in fabric textiles around your home. We try to avoid this as much as we can, as it is a much greater time commitment. However, for some infestations, it is one of the most effective ways to regain control of your home.
