Limited WDO inspections cover a portion of the property, while comprehensive inspections include the entire structure.
There are various types of wood-destroying organisms (WDOs), but what they all have in common is their ability to cause widespread destruction. Since these insects feed on wood, they take up residence in homes where they can access the framing, decks, handrails, and other components made from the natural material. As they continue to multiply, the risk of damage increases significantly. The most common type of WDO is the termite, an insect that can cause harm to your home’s structure and threaten your safety.
Unfortunately, termites and other WDOs aren’t always easy to spot, as they tend to stay out of sight. You may notice signs of an infestation, such as tubes on the walls or tiny holes in visible wooden structures and components. But the best way to protect yourself and your Lakeland Highlands, Florida property is to schedule regular WDO inspections. At The Other Side Lawn & Ornamental Pest Control Inc., we work with local property owners to provide this vital service. We recommend that property owners schedule WDO inspections at least once every few years.
Limited WDO inspections cover a portion of the property, while comprehensive inspections include the entire structure. If you are buying or selling a home in the area, it’s also worth bringing in our team to perform a full inspection.
