Termite Inspections

Annual termite inspections are very important when it comes to protecting your property against these destructive pests. Inspections not only identify termites, they also identify the conditions that make a property more vulnerable to wood-destroying pests. Many homes in the U.S. are at risk of termites.

We understand termites have no place in your home. The termite extermination team at Rentokil performs comprehensive termite inspections that will accurately diagnose any termite issues in your Dallas – Fort Worth Texas home or business.

Termite Inspections for Real Estate Purchases

Termites and other wood-destroying pests are a top concern in the South Texas area. Before closing on your home, you’ll want to have it professionally inspected. An inspection will identify any termite signs and the conditions that make the home more susceptible to termites, like wood rot and moisture–factors that aren’t generally identifiable to the untrained eye.

Rentokil provides customers in South Texas with professional wood destroying organism inspections for real estate purchases and refinancing.

In addition to termites, our team is trained to inspect for evidence of carpenter bees, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, and other wood-destroying organisms.

Some U.S. states actually require termite inspections before the property goes under contract. A Rentokil technician conducting a real estate inspection will provide you with written documentation in the presence or absence of wood-destroying organism activity.

2. Inspecting for cracks, hollowed wood, and bubbled paint, all of which are indicators of a wood destroying insect infestation.
3. If termites are discovered, developing a custom treatment plan based on the type and severity of the infestation.
4. If no evidence of termites are found, offering you ways you can help prevent termites from infesting your home.
