The trouble with having a pest company do an inspection for you is that it is
like asking the barber whether or not he thinks you need a haircut.

Every time I've been privy to where this is going on, the pest company says,
"We cannot certify you home as guaranteed 100% termite free unless we do our
full treatment for a mere $1200." The presence or absence of any actual
termites is beside the point.
