The typical duration of a termite inspection can vary depending on the size and condition of the property, but it generally takes a few hours to complete. Termite inspectors are required to have specific qualifications and licenses to perform these inspections, including knowledge of construction, building codes, and pest control regulations.
The key responsibilities of termite inspectors include identifying any signs of termite infestation, assessing potential damage to the property, and providing a detailed report of their findings. Their findings can have a direct impact on loan approval and ultimately the sale of the property, making their role crucial in the real estate transaction process.

During our inspections, we pay close attention to any damage to the floor joists, support girders, band or sill. This includes looking for visible mud tubes, wood damage, or discarded termite wings. These are all key indicators of termite presence and can help us identify any potential issues before they escalate.
Signs of termites can include hollow-sounding wood, small holes in wood, sagging floors, and visible termite droppings. Evidence of infestation may also be evident in damaged or discolored drywall, peeling paint, or small piles of pellets.It is crucial for the inspector to thoroughly examine all accessible areas of the property to ensure a comprehensive inspection.

Your License-To-Kill termite inspector will start by inspecting the exterior of the structure. Your inspector will pay extra attention to typical termite harborages like rafters, roof facing, roof shingles, fascia, windows and doors. After thoroughly examining your home or building for evidence of termite infestation, the termite inspection will move inside to the bedrooms, living rooms, kitchen, bathrooms, attic and garage.
If you have another inspection report and wish for a second opinion, we welcome you to e-mail, fax or mail it to us. We frequently find termite infestations in structures that other companies have deemed clear. Don’t take our word for it, see what our customers have to say.
Your termite inspector will provide you with a detailed report of all findings of wood destroying organisms within the structure. License-To-Kill’s comprehensive wood destroying pests and organism inspection reports cover all sections of termite activity:
Drywood termites swarm into the home, creating new colonies. If your structure has an infestation of Drywood termites, your termite inspector will see evidence of wings, boring dust, fecal pellets or termite galleries during the inspection. We treat for Drywood termites in several ways; fumigation, localized spot treatments and wood replacement.
There are two different kinds of fungus that all termite inspectors look for. When wood has become infected with fungus or dry rot, it must be removed immediately. Care must also be taken to ensure the source of moisture is sealed to prevent further leaks. If left alone, the excess moisture and weakened wood provide a perfect entry point for a colony of termites.
Subterranean termites move through mud tubes known as shelter tubes, which protect them from predators. Your License-To-Kill termite technician will thoroughly inspect your garage and foundation areas for these tubes and other evidence of Subterranean termite activity. Subterranean termites live in the ground, and come up to feed on the wood in your home. It is necessary to treat access points throughout the home where the subterranean termites can enter. Many times, front porches, garages, and other areas that have cement need to be drilled and injected with termiticides underneath the cement slabs to provide successful termite control.
License-To-Kill treats for wood boring beetles in a variety of ways depending on the severity of the infestation; whole structure fumigation, local spot treatments or wood replacement.
Any type of paper trash, leaves, wood branches, firewood, cardboard, etc. left under the home will encourage termites to feed there. Removal of these items will decrease the chances of infestation.
When wood directly contacts soil, the wood decays rapidly. Timber to soil contact conceals termite infestations and causes dry rot and fungal infections. Typically, the wood will need to be replaced – or at the very least, the soil re-graded.
When soil is even or above the concrete foundation of the structure, it may be concealing infestations, fungal infections or dry rot. A flash wall or re-grading the soil may prevent termite infestations.
When it comes to escrow inspections, it is critical to hire a professional termite inspector with the right qualifications and experience. At License to Kill, we understand the importance of having comprehensive knowledge of different types of termites, treatment methods, and potential issues to look for during an inspection. Our team of termite inspectors are highly trained and experienced, ensuring that they have the expertise to accurately identify and address any termite-related problems that may arise.
