PEST & TERMITE INSPECTION REPORTS

TERMITE & PEST INSPECTION REPORTS

Specialised timber pest inspectors should play an important role in any home inspection. Termites regularly go unnoticed until they have caused devastating damage to a building.

Pro Property Reports offer a report service that includes a visual pest and termite inspection of all accessible and available areas of a property, a necessity for determining if there are active termites present or if there is any termite damage.

Termites tend to stay underground or within wood products and are often overlooked. It is almost impossible for an inspector to visually identify or locate an active termite infestation without using the tools of trade Thermal camera, acoustic sounding sticks and moisture Meters or by looking at only the finished surface of a building.

A termite inspection will usually take around 1 Hour to examine the interior and exterior of the home or building including all accessible roof cavities and sub-floor areas in order to compile a thorough report.

HOW DOES A TERMITE INSPECTION REPORT WORK?

A Pest & Termite Inspection Report evaluates:

• Evidence of active or previous termite activity and workings/Damage
• All Accessible areas inspected on the property
• Conditions that may be conducive to timber pest attack, any Breaches of the Termite Barriers and High Moisture area’s that may be caused by a sub termite nest in the home

TERMITE & PEST INSPECTION REPORT INCLUSIONS

Pro Property Reports’ pest inspectors carry out a complete and thorough inspection to all accessible parts of the property. These include the following areas:

• Interior of the building
• Exterior of the building
• Roof space
• Under-floor space
• Roof exterior (subject to health and safety regulations)
• Garage, carport and garden shed
• Separate laundry or toilet
• Small retaining walls (ie. non-structural)
• Steps, fencing, paths and driveways

It’s important to remember that a Termite & Pest Inspection Report is not an all-encompassing report dealing with every single aspect of the property, and it is not a warranty against further pest attacks.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

THERMAL IMAGING TECHNOLOGY

Pro Property Inspectors use infrared cameras for thermal imaging inspections when carrying out the pest and termite inspections.

The thermal imaging cameras are a non-destructive tool that detects heat patterns in walls, floors and roofs.

The cameras create an image based on thermal energy rather than light which helps to detect termite invasion as termites produce heat when active nests are present.

Examples of thermal images detecting pests and termites are provided below. These images were taken during several different termite inspections.

One image shows active and previous termite activity, another image shows the infestation of rats, with the third image detecting a snake.
