PEST INSPECTIONS

A Pest Inspection is a visual inspection of the readily accessible areas of a home for evidence of termite activity and or termite workings/damage. The inspector will visually inspect the interior and exterior of the home or building including any accessible roof cavities and sub-floor areas. These inspections are designed to locate the presence of termites or borers and also to identify areas which are prone to a potential attack.

The inspector should tell you:

• what (if any) termite management system has been used on the home and where you can find the maintenance requirements of the system
• if the property is in an area where there is risk of termite attack.

A pest inspector must be fully qualified, licensed and insured to perform the inspections and to carry out treatments or to install termite management systems.

A pre-purchase pest inspection, or more accurately a pre-purchase timber pest inspection, is an inspection carried out on a property by potential buyers, before purchase.

A pest inspection identifies visible signs of timber pests including subterranean termites, fungal decay, wood borers, conditions conducive to timber pests and provides recommendations on how to reduce the risk of a timber pest attack.
