"Do I really need a pest inspector?" Why should you always include a pest control inspection? Because along with foundation problems, damage by insects, such as subterranean termites or dry wood termites, are one of the most expensive problems you can have, and a good quality pest control inspection can help to uncover such damage. It is also a good time to get treatment if you need it because often the seller will cover the cost.

If you are neither buying nor selling a home but have never had a pest inspection completed or suspect a problem, we also recommend periodic inspections (approximately every 2-3 years or so). Often times, small "problems" can be caught and fixed before they have the opportunity to escalate into a much larger and expensive situation.
