A termite inspection checks a home for termites, termite damage and conditions that invite them. In Casa Grande it is most often ordered during a home sale. Many buyers ask for it, and VA loans and some FHA loans require a wood-destroying insect report before closing.
In Arizona this report is called a Wood Destroying Insect Inspection Report. The inspector files it with the Arizona Department of Agriculture, Pest Management Division, and anyone can ask the state for past reports on an address. That record can show whether a home was treated before and when.
The inspector looks at every reachable part of the home: the slab edge, garage, closets, cabinets under sinks, the attic and wood trim, fences and sheds. They look for mud tubes, swarmer wings, frass and soft or hollow wood. They also note moisture, wood touching soil and stucco that runs below grade, since those let termites in without being seen.
