What does FI mean on the termite report?

The designation "FI" on the termite report stands for "Further Inspection Recommended." This term is used to indicate that upon the initial assessment of the property, certain conditions or findings necessitate an additional, more thorough examination. This could be due to visible signs of infestation, damage that warrants a closer look, or environmental factors that may contribute to a higher risk of termite activity.

Further inspection is critical because it helps to ensure that any potential issues are fully addressed before they escalate. Termite infestations can often go unnoticed until significant damage has occurred, so recommending a further inspection aims to protect the property owner’s investment and prevent ongoing or increased damage from termites.

The other options do not accurately reflect what "FI" stands for in the context of a termite report. Options such as "Firm inspection required," "First inspection indicated," or "Final inspection aggregated" do not convey the same urgency or meaning regarding the need for additional assessment as "Further Inspection Recommended" does.
