Do You Need a WDI/ Termite Inspection?
Why Wood Destroying Insect Inspections Are Essential
Wood-destroying insects, such as termites, carpenter ants, and wood-boring beetles, can weaken your home’s structural integrity without visible signs. These pests often go undetected until significant damage has occurred. A professional WDI inspection identifies infestations early, saving you from costly repairs and preserving your property’s value. Whether you’re a homebuyer, seller, or homeowner, a WDI inspection is a critical step in protecting your biggest investment.
Common Wood-Destroying Insects We Detect
Our thorough inspections focus on identifying the most common pests that threaten homes in Pittsburgh, including:
-
Termites: Known for silently consuming wood from the inside out.
-
Carpenter Ants: Cause damage by tunneling through wood to create nests.
-
Wood-Boring Beetles: Lay eggs in wood, where larvae can cause extensive damage.
-
Powderpost Beetles: Create fine powdery dust as a sign of infestation.
By detecting these pests early, Keystone Castle Inspections can help you address the problem before it escalates.
Signs of Wood-Destroying Insect Activity
Not sure if you need a WDI inspection? Look for these telltale signs:

Small holes in wood surfaces with frass (sawdust-like material)

Discarded wings near windows or doors

Uneven or bubbling paint
If you notice any of these indicators, contact Keystone Castle Inspections immediately for a comprehensive inspection.
