These are real pages from the book. The table of contents is the full one: 9 parts and 61 topics.
You're in the crawlspace with a flashlight, and there's a mud tube on the foundation wall. Is it a working tube, an exploratory tube or a drop tube?
The study manual covers all four types in two long paragraphs, one after the other. Four tube names with nothing to hang them on, and by the next morning they've blurred into one.
In the book, the 4 tubes are drawn on the foundation, right where you find them: the working tube running from soil to wood, the exploratory tube that never reaches wood, the drop tube hanging down from the wood, the swarm tube. You see the shape and you know which one it is.
Same with the rest: the 3 termite groups side by side, swarmer vs. flying ant, drywood pellets, the building parts on a cutaway, the 7-step inspection. Each one has its own page.
Next time you're under the house, you name the tube, you know what it means and you write your findings without going back to the manual.
Colony biology, termite ID, field signs, other wood destroyers, construction, the 7-step inspection, the diagram and report, treatment basics and review: 65 pages, all illustrated.
Think of it this way:
You're in the attic of an older house. There's a small pile of pellets under a rafter, a few shed wings on the insulation, and the buyer's agent is texting you for the report.
In the book you open the drywood page: the pellets drawn next to the kick-out hole, so you match what you see. Another page shows swarmer vs. flying ant, so you know whose wings those are.
Same with sounding and probing wood, subterranean vs. drywood damage, evidence of previous treatment and how to word live, dead or damage findings: each one on its own page.
Termite Inspection Illustrated is 9 parts and 61 topics, all drawn, and at the end a review section with the 3 termites in one table, frequent ID and report mistakes, key numbers and the 7-step inspection on one page.
What you see drawn, you don't have to memorize.
Why termites eat wood, the castes, the life cycle from swarm to new colony, swarm season and what every colony needs.
The 3 termite groups side by side, Eastern and Formosan subterranean, drywood, dampwood, swarmer vs. flying ant and soldier heads.
The 4 types of mud tubes, active or old, subterranean and drywood damage, drywood pellets, shed wings, sounding and probing.
What counts as a WDI on the NPMA-33, carpenter ants and bees, powderpost beetles, old house borer, decay fungi and look-alikes.
Building terms for the exam, slab, crawlspace and basement construction, clearances, moisture, cellulose debris and hidden entry points.
The 7-step method, the tool kit, each step from yard to attic, inaccessible areas and safety on the job.
Drawing the structure graph, standard symbols, how the NPMA-33 is organized, live, dead or damage, previous treatment, CA, FL and TX reports and careful wording.
Trench and rod, repellent vs. non-repellent, slab drilling, baits, drywood treatments and pre-construction, always by the label.
The 3 termites in one table, frequent ID and report mistakes, key numbers and the 7-step inspection on one page.
At the end of the book: A review section with the 3 termites in one table, frequent ID and report mistakes, key numbers and the 7-step inspection on one page.
Test yourself with exam-style questions on termite ID, signs, construction and treatment, each with the answer and the page to review.
Review the pests and their signs side by side on printable cards, so you stop mixing up drywood pellets, beetle frass and decay fungi.

Yes. It's built for techs adding termite work and for WDI inspectors. Termite ID, field signs, construction, the 7-step inspection and the NPMA-33 apply in any state. The state-specific report notes cover California, Florida and Texas only. Your own state's manual still sets your exam's rules.
It's reviewed against state termite/WDO study materials (California Branch 3, Florida WDO, Texas termite category), the NPMA-33 inspection report, the International Residential Code (R317 and R408) and EPA-registered termiticide labels. The book explains how the report is organized and what goes in each section: always fill out the current form your state or company uses. Treatment pages explain methods, not product rates: the label on the product you use comes first.
