WDO & Termite Inspection in Citrus County, Florida
Eagle Comprehensive Home Inspections performs WDO (Wood-Destroying Organism) inspections throughout Citrus County, Florida. A WDO inspection — commonly called a termite inspection — evaluates your home for evidence of termites, wood-destroying beetles, and wood-destroying fungi. In Florida’s subtropical climate, WDO inspections are standard practice in every real estate transaction and required by most lenders for FHA, VA, and conventional loans.
What a WDO Inspection Covers in Florida
- Subterranean termites: Most common and destructive in Florida; mud tubes, damaged wood, and live colonies
- Drywood termites: Common in coastal Citrus County; frass pellets and exit holes in wood
- Wood-destroying beetles: Powderpost and old house borers found in older FL homes
- Wood-destroying fungi: Brown rot, white rot, and moisture-related wood damage
- Visible evidence of prior treatment: Chemical barriers, bait stations, and past damage
Eagle Comprehensive’s WDO inspectors are licensed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS). Our WDO report (FDACS-13645) is accepted by all major lenders, title companies, and real estate attorneys operating in Citrus County.
Why WDO Inspections Matter in Citrus County
Citrus County’s warm, humid climate is ideal for termite activity year-round. Subterranean termites — the species responsible for the most structural damage — are active in every county in Florida. Homes near water, with slab foundations, or with older wood framing are particularly vulnerable. Early detection through a thorough WDO inspection can save buyers tens of thousands of dollars in remediation costs.
