Western North Carolina's unique climate creates ideal conditions for pest activity throughout all four seasons. Our humid summers, mild springs and falls, and relatively temperate winters mean pests don't simply disappear when temperatures drop. Instead, they adapt their behavior, often seeking shelter in the warm, protected environments our homes provide.
When buying, selling, or refinancing a home in Western North Carolina, you'll likely encounter the term "WDI report." Understanding what a Wood-Destroying Insect Report entails is crucial for protecting your investment and ensuring your home's structural integrity. A WDI report is your first line of defense against costly structural damage that can devastate property values and compromise your family's safety. In the humid climate of the Blue Ridge Mountains, wood-destroying insects pose a particularly significant threat to homes throughout Buncombe, Henderson, and Transylvania Counties.
