Revised WDIO form for real estate closings
Attention Real Estate Agents and Home Sellers. There is a revised form which must be used for real estate closing inspections effective January 1, 2020. The NPMA-33 form which is used for reporting on wood destroying insects for a real estate closing has been revised. There are several changes on the form which are more clerical in nature. The main change is the treatment recommendation section regarding termites. The bottom line is that if evidence of previous termites are observed and the house is not under a current termite service warranty a company "may" recommend it be treated. This was a horrible wording and some entomologists and legal experts say legally a company now "should" recommend a treatment to prevent a legal issue. Hopefully the committee which revised this report will see this issue and create a new revised form, however, this is something that could take time.

We hope to add information about us, our services and helpful tips about pest control with your home. Please go to facebook and look us up "Emergency Pest Control,Inc" and like our page. We promise not to go overboard with our posts but keep you informed.
Termite Information
The following link is an excellent source of information regarding termites and termite treatments. There are numerous ways of treating for termites and numerous types of products that can be used. Dr. Dini Miller from Virginia Tech wrote this article a few years back but it still has very good information to help make you aware of the different options when it comes to treating your home for termites.

Email Service for Billing and Reports
We are now offering a new faster service for getting you reports and invoices. For our regular customers we can now send you your reports and invoices through email. We can also notify you when it is time for your next service through email. If you wish to receive your notifications and reports/invoices this way simply let us know and give us your email address.
We can also send real estate closing reports and invoices through email as well. Simply let us know the attorney or title company name, email address and contact person and we can scan and email the report once it has been prepared. It is our understanding that for closings there is no need for an original document to be delivered to the attorney or title company.
We hope that this new service will help save time and money as postage costs and gas prices have continued to rise. You can contact us through the "Contact Us" page to give us your email information or send us an email to: emergencypest@aol.com .
