What Our Termite Inspection Covers

Our comprehensive termite inspections are designed to detect both active infestations and early warning signs of damage. We check:

Evidence of drywood termites or subterranean termites
Presence of frass (termite droppings)
Hollow-sounding wood or structural weakness
Mud tubes, damaged paint, and exit holes
Wood contact with soil or moisture-prone areas
Previous damage that could lead to future infestations

We inspect attics, subareas, garages, baseboards, eaves, patios, decks, and all accessible wood components.

What Happens After the Inspection?

After the inspection, you’ll receive:

A detailed written report outlining any signs of termites or wood-destroying organisms

Honest, no-pressure treatment recommendations, such as spot treatment or fumigation

A chance to ask questions and plan next steps with a knowledgeable termite inspector

We do not offer “free termite inspections,” because our evaluations are professional, time-intensive, and trusted by homeowners and real estate professionals throughout the region.

What is the Four Season approach?

Our four season approach targets the seasonal pest problem locally in Southern California. Each season and climate triggers particular pests to be active and to look for harborage. However, it is common to see ants, spiders and rodents year round.

WINTER

Warmth indoors attracts pests into your living spaces; rain and cold weather drive ants, rodents, silverfish and spiders inside. Pests can also be brought inside on plants, firewood, and other items. Rodents are especially problematic due to colder temperatures outside.

SPRING

Warmer spring weather invites bees, Argentine ants into your home and yard. Other common spring pests include: termite swarmers, carpenter ants, fire ants, pill bugs, spiders, aphids, wasps, fleas, ticks, box elder bugs, gophers and moles.

SUMMER

High temperature is conducive for bees, wasps, and yellow jackets, as well as ants, earwigs, millipedes, crickets, springtails, brown widow spiders, black widow spiders and water beetles. The summer weather also spikes the activity of bed bugs, fleas, ticks and German cockroach, scorpions especially in new development areas and in homes located in foothill like surroundings.

FALL

As temperatures drop and cooler weather approaches, orb weaver, spiders, beetles, rodents, stink bugs, box elder beetles and other overwintering pests begin to move indoors . These pests use walls, voids, basements and attics as winter retreats. Termites are very active this time of the year, so too are gophers. It is particularly important to be on the lookout for droppings and gnaw marks, indicating rodent infestation. Rodent control and exclusion work begin to significantly trend up during the fall.
