What Is A WDO Inspection, And Why Might You Need One?
Wood-destroying organisms can present a serious threat to structures in Colorado Springs. If you're buying or selling a property, you'll want to get a WDO Inspection. The two pests we look for most are subterranean termites and carpenter ants. Subterranean termites live in the ground and eat wood. They can come up from the ground and secretly feed on structures for years without detection. Carpenter ants tunnel in wood. They create galleries in which to establish their nests. Both can compromise the integrity of structures if you don't address the infestation. But how do you manage an infestation if you don't know you have one? A WDO Inspection can help you get the data you need to make a wise investment or avoid termite damage in a structure you already own.

Our termite control professionals have the training and experience to locate signs of termites in your yard or within structures on your property.

There are many ways your technician will evaluate your property for termite or carpenter ant infestations or the potential for an infestation. We look for rotting wood because these pests target rotting wood first. We consider moisture problems, which can lead to rotting wood. Places with moisture problems are also where wood-destroying organisms are. We inspect the structure and consider conducive conditions, such as wood-to-soil contact or stacked branches in the yard. These provide food for termites and increase the chances of an infestation. We inspect your property for mud shelter tubes created by subterranean termites or frass produced by carpenter ants. We also check for direct evidence of termite infestations, such as winged swarming termites on your Colorado Springs property. The data we collect provides what you need to guard your property or get it ready for sale.
