Here's What Happens During Your WDI Inspection with Us
We like to keep things easy and stress-free when we come to inspect your Cookeville home for wood-destroying insects. Here’s what you can expect:
Our Home Pest Control Process
-
InspectionOur inspection begins by talking with you about what pest problems you’ve noticed around your house. We’ll then inspect the exterior, looking around your foundation, eaves, overhangs, and even your garage to identify pest activity and to locate webs and nests that need to be removed. If needed, we’ll also inspect the inside of your house to identify areas where pests are active and need to be taken care of. -
TreatmentOur treatments are designed around your home’s unique pest control needs. If pests are present already, we’ll begin by targeting those issues to make your house pest-free. We’ll then provide a preventive treatment that includes interior and exterior treatments. Inside, we’ll provide a baseboard treatment. Outside, we’ll perform a perimeter treatment, a garage treatment, de-webbing and de-nesting, and a power spray of your eaves and trim.
-
Follow-UpRegular follow-up treatments keep pests out of your home. We offer quarterly re-services to make sure your house stays pest-free. When we come back to your home, we’ll re-treat the exterior with the same services done during our initial treatment. If you need an interior treatment done, just let us know and we’ll add that to your service. We back our pest control services with a satisfaction guarantee that includes a money-back guarantee and a web-free and nest-free guarantee.

Your WDI Inspection Questions Answered
What exactly do you look for during a standard WDI inspection?
A standard WDI inspection in Cookeville involves a thorough check of all accessible parts of your property for evidence of wood-destroying insects like termites (which are quite common here), carpenter ants, and wood-boring beetles. Our inspectors will look for telltale signs such as mud tubes (a termite giveaway), wood that sounds hollow when tapped, and any visible damage caused by these pests. You'll get a detailed report outlining our findings and any recommended treatments.
How often should homeowners have a WDI inspection done?
Given Cookeville's climate, which unfortunately is quite inviting to wood-destroying insects, we recommend getting a WDI inspection at least once a year. Regular check-ups help us catch any problems early on, which can save you a lot of money on repairs and keep your property structurally sound. Plus, if you're buying or selling a home in the area, these inspections are often a required step.
Is a WDI inspection legally required when selling a property in Cookeville?
