Wood Destroying Organisms (WDO) Inspections

WDO is an acronym for Wood Destroying Organisms. When people hear the word “wood destroying organism,” most of them immediately think of termites. This is a great first guess – especially since termites damage over 600,000 American homes yearly. In reality, these tiny bugs fall into a subgroup of WDOs known as wood destroying insects. They share this title with carpenter bees, powderpost beetles, carpenter ants and other pests.

Professionally Trained to Identify WDOs

When performing a WDO inspection, experts look for more than just these insects. Wood decay, evidence of past infestations, damage to wooden structures, evidence of past treatments and favorable conditions for infestations are all potential issues the inspector will look for. Any of these signs can indicate the presence of these organisms. To avoid getting stuck with extensive damage that is typically not covered by homeowners’ insurance, buyers should always request a WDO inspection before finalizing the purchase of a home. The WDO inspection will provide detailed reports on the condition of the home, including notations of structural damage related to termites and other WDO’s.
