With both drywood and subterranean termites present in Arizona, an inspector has to check for two different infestation patterns rather than one, especially on older properties near the post.
A thorough inspection covers attics, crawl spaces, and any exterior wood in contact with soil, since a house can look clean at a glance while still hosting termite activity in a less visible spot.
