Having yearly termite inspections is required to reduce the expense of termite repairs and damage. Termite inspection offers you a comprehensive termite evaluation of all accessible places where a termite issue may develop, giving you total peace of mind.
Everything beneath your kitchen and bathroom sinks will need to be relocated so that the inspector can examine your water sources for termites. Move everything against the garage wall two feet away from the wall. You must also relocate items against exterior walls two feet out.
Clear any obstructions to the attic entry before the inspector arrives. You would want to make sure that no debris falls from the attic while the inspector is working.
The inspector may be able to readily reach the crawl space if your house has a raised foundation. Clear the way, clear any obstructions, and ensure that nothing in the crawl area will hinder the inspector's job.
Trim any vegetation, such as ground cover or bushes, that obscure the foundation or external walls.
An hour and a half to two hours will be spent by the termite inspector in inspecting your property. Mud tubes, broken wings, droppings, and damaged wood are some of the places that your termite inspector will pay more attention to.
Moreover, the inspector will look for indications of termite damage in your house and the surrounding land and yard. The inspector will need access to your garage and attic for this examination. Furthermore, the inspector will check the house's exterior walls and eaves, as well as the foundation. This is because subterranean termites often exploit plumbing penetrations in the slab to gain entry to your home.
