The Difference Between Home Fumigation and Spot Treatments

Termite Inspection
Commonly referred to as a termite inspection, bug nerds like ourselves know it as a WDO (Wood Destroying Organisms) Inspection.
Our termite experts will inspect a building’s structural integrity, and review other areas that are likely to attract termites, dry rot, fungus, and all the rest. Often, to the untrained eye, there’s no apparent indication that something is amiss. Our highly skilled technicians will carefully examine the structure, identifying wood destroying critters and their source of infestation.
