What Ia A Termite Inspection?
A termite inspection involves a visual examination of the accessible areas of a home to detect signs of wood-destroying insects (WDI) and wood-destroying organisms (WDO). Our inspector will thoroughly check both the interior and exterior of the house. Any location with wooden structures or furniture, such as attics, basements, and crawl spaces, will be meticulously inspected.
Termite Treatment Methods
Among the various methods to combat a termite infestation, chemical treatment appears to be the most effective one. The primary goal of this treatment is to establish a continuous termiticide barrier between the termite colony and the wood within a building. This is achieved by applying termiticide in the soil on both sides of the foundation wall, effectively thwarting the termites’ progress. The barrier acts as a deterrent, preventing termites from entering the house and causing further damage.
How can termites be prevented?
Preventing a termite infestation can be achieved through various methods. One effective approach is to enlist the services of a pesticide company to spray liquid termiticide on the foundation before pouring the concrete.
Certain situations can lead to termite infestations, such as earth-to-wood contact at support posts, presence of cellulose debris and form boards in the crawlspace, inadequate drainage systems, and insufficient ventilation. By being mindful of these factors during property construction, homeowners can significantly reduce the risk of termite infestations.

Radon contamination poses a significant concern for homes in Connecticut. Our test employs advanced instruments capable of detecting this odorless and invisible radioactive gas.

In the event that dangerous radon levels are detected, we will provide recommendations for mitigation measures.
Prior to making a home investment, it’s prudent to ensure that there is no wood-destroying insect or termite damage, as this could lead to unexpected and significant costs. Our inspection thoroughly examines the home’s interior and exterior structure, checking for any existing termite damage and signs of active termite nesting inside the property.
