WDI & WDO Inspections
Protect Your Property Before You Close or Invest
Wood-destroying insects and organisms can damage a structure long before problems are visible. A professional WDI and WDO inspection documents whether termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, or wood-decay fungi are present — and identifies conditions that make future damage more likely.
Pestcom Pest Management provides professional WDI and WDO inspections for real estate transactions, refinancing, and homeowner peace of mind.
What a WDI / WDO Inspection Covers
A WDI/WDO inspection is a visual, non-invasive evaluation of accessible areas of a structure. It looks for:
- Active infestations
- Evidence of previous infestations
- Conditions conducive to damage
We inspect:
- Exterior foundation, siding, decks, and porches
- Garages and interior baseboards
- Plumbing and wall penetrations
- Attics and crawl spaces when accessible
You receive a formal inspection report (NPMA-33 or lender-requested format) with:
- Photos
- Diagrams
- Written findings
- Plain-English recommendations
How We Conduct the Inspection
- Confirm inspection scope with buyer, seller, or agent
- Review any prior reports or disclosures
- Inspect exterior and foundation zones
- Inspect interior living areas and garage
- Enter accessible attic and crawl spaces
- Identify moisture, grading, and wood-to-soil contact
- Photograph and document findings
- Issue a lender-compatible report
Inspection results are always separated from any treatment recommendations to keep the report impartial.
Preparing for Your Inspection
Before we arrive
- Ensure attic and crawl-space access
- Move stored items 18–24 inches from garage and foundation walls
- Provide any previous termite or WDI reports
- Share information about irrigation, leaks, or repairs
What You’ll Receive
- PDF report (same day or next business day)
- Photos and diagram of findings
Findings categorized as:
- Active
- Evidence of past
- Conducive conditions
- Repair and moisture-control recommendations
- Optional treatment estimate if needed (separate from inspection)

Understanding Wood-Destroying Insects & Organisms
Wood-destroying insects include:
- Termites
- Carpenter ants
- Carpenter bees
- Wood-boring beetles
- Powderpost beetles
Wood-destroying organisms include fungi that cause wood rot when moisture is present. During a WDO inspection, we evaluate both insect activity and moisture-related decay conditions.
