What is the purpose of a Termite/WDI (Wood Destroying Insect) Inspection?
The purpose of a WDI report is to look for any signs of visible evidence of termites, old house borers, powder post beetles, carpenter ants or carpenter bees that may be present in the structure. The inspector will also be looking for “conducive conditions” of Wood Destroying Insects which can lead to destruction of the wood framing or drywall in the home.

The home is made of stone or brick,  do I really need a Termite Inspection?
Not only can termites destroy the outside of the home, but termites can destroy the wood framing of the home and the drywall inside. Every home in Central Texas should have a termite inspection whether old or new, wood or stone. 

Is A WDI (Wood Destroying Insect) Report Required?
When purchasing a home in Texas, most mortgage companies require a WDI (Wood Destroying Insect) Report of the home.
