Rodent inspection service is a standalone professional assessment — without the obligation of a treatment purchase — that determines whether a property has active rodent activity, identifies species and entry points if present, and provides a written report of findings. In Winston-Salem, standalone inspection requests come from four situations: home buyers or sellers needing pre-purchase assessment, property owners wanting post-treatment verification, homeowners who have seen early evidence but are unsure of its scale, and property managers setting up a baseline for a newly acquired property.

Full interior walk — kitchen, utility spaces, attic or crawl-space access, basement if present. Full exterior perimeter — foundation, crawl-space vents, roofline where accessible, exterior bait-station and burrow evidence. Written findings: evidence type, location, species assessment, severity estimate, entry-point inventory, and treatment recommendation with scope and range estimate. Photographs provided on request.
Pre-purchase: buyers and sellers of older Forsyth County homes benefit from an independent rodent inspection that is not contingent on a service contract. Post-treatment verification: after completing a program with any provider, a verification inspection confirms knockdown and seal integrity. Early detection: a few droppings in the pantry may be an isolated incident or the early stage of an established population — the inspection determines which. New property baseline: property managers acquiring older Forsyth County properties benefit from a documented baseline inspection before occupancy.
We do not charge for residential or commercial rodent inspections in Winston-Salem and Forsyth County. We make this clear not as a sales technique but because an uninformed treatment decision — scoping too light, missing a species, misidentifying entry points — is worse for the homeowner than no treatment at all. The inspection exists so that whatever is done next is grounded in actual findings.

A typical single-family residential inspection runs 30–60 minutes depending on property size and the presence of an attic or crawl space. Commercial site surveys for larger properties run 60–90 minutes. Written report is provided same-day or next-business-day.
Yes. The written inspection report documents evidence found, entry points identified, species assessment, and treatment recommendations. Buyers use it for disclosure negotiations; sellers use it to demonstrate pre-listing due diligence. The report includes date, address, and the issuing business name.
A general pest inspection covers multiple pest categories — termites, carpenter ants, cockroaches, rodents — typically as part of a home purchase inspection. A rodent-specific inspection goes deeper on evidence, entry-point mapping, and species assessment. If you specifically want to know whether you have rats or mice and where they are getting in, a rodent-specific inspection produces more actionable findings.
