Whether you are buying a new home, renovating an old one or simply want to maintain a pest-free environment, a pest inspection is a must. In this article, we'll delve into the significance of pest inspections and what makes a thorough examination. Above is the image of a rat control problem in Bristol we helped a customer solve.


Why Do You Need a Pest Inspection?

A pest inspection is a comprehensive evaluation of a property to determine the presence of any pests and the extent of their infestation. Pest inspections usually take from 20 minutes to over an hour depending on the pest being sought, the scale and scope of the infestation and the experience of the person carrying out the inspection.


Pests can cause serious harm to both the structure of your property and your health. Some common pests include flies, rats, mice, fleas and bedbugs. These pests can cause extensive damage to your health and your property, leading to costly repairs and sometimes mental health issues from phobias and loss of sleep. Moreover, they can also carry diseases that harm you and your family's health.


A pest inspection helps identify the presence of these pests and determine the extent of the infestation, allowing you to confidently take the necessary measures to eliminate them with or without professional help.


What Makes a Thorough Pest Inspection?

A thorough pest inspection involves a comprehensive examination of all areas of the property, including the exterior and interior. The pest control technician should pay close attention to areas that are prone to pest infestations, such as the basement, attic, and crawl spaces, kitchens, toilets and drain inspection chambers.


During the inspection, the inspecting technician should also look for any signs of pest activity, such as rat droppings, wasps nests, cast skins, and damaged wood.


A thorough pest inspection report should include a detailed description of the property's condition, including the type of pests present or evidenced, the extent of any infestation, and any necessary treatments or repairs to remedy the pest issues identified.


In addition to identifying any pest problems, it is important to provide recommendations for effective pest control measures. At Pale Horse Pest Control, we offer a range of solutions including baits, traps, lures, extermination, and preventive measures such as structural remediation and repairs to exclude rodents, insects, and birds.


Our experienced technicians will assess your unique situation and provide customised recommendations to address your specific pest control needs. With our comprehensive approach to pest control, you can rest assured that your property will be protected from pest infestations now and in the future.


The Benefits of Hiring a Professional Pest Inspector

Hiring a professional pest inspector has numerous benefits. Professional pest inspectors have the expertise and experience to accurately identify pests and their infestations. They also use the latest tools and techniques to conduct a thorough examination of the property.


Moreover, professional pest controllers are familiar with local regulations, ensuring that the inspection meets all the necessary requirements.


They can also provide a detailed and comprehensive report for reference or for insurance purposes.


Pest professionals should always focus on solving a problem and not just treat it. You want your investment in this process to be rewarded with peace of mind for many years to come.
