2. Treatment Recommendation Guidelines Regarding Subterranean Termites: This section provides additional detail and guidance to the inspector to assist in making the often difficult decision as to when a recommendation for treatment should be made in Section III.

This section states that lack of a ladder for access or less than 24" of clearance beneath floor joists in the crawl space are acceptable explanations for inaccessibility to parts of the structure. Note that neither factor is intended to limit the scope or quality of the inspection when the inspector can readily gain access to these areas.
