Colorado termite inspection and WDI report guide
HUD hosts NPMA-33 for FHA and VA use when wood-destroying insect information is requested. It is not an official Colorado state report, and the party requesting the inspection should confirm the form it accepts. Here is when the report comes up and how to check the pest-control company or applicator involved.

NPMA-33 Wood Destroying Insect Inspection Report
When it comes up
- VA loans in 43 listed counties. VA lists 43 Colorado counties for wood-destroying insect information. In other Colorado counties, VA says the information is required when the appraisal identifies a potential wood-destroying insect problem. source
- Colorado residential sales. Colorado's 2026 seller disclosure asks about known termite and other insect damage, but the disclosure itself does not order a WDI inspection for every sale. source
Need the inspection done?
Enter the property's city or ZIP code to see the licensed companies PestPin matches to termite work there, with the phone number wherever the state record lists one, so you can call one today.
Our records show each company's license, not which companies write the NPMA-33 Wood Destroying Insect Inspection Report, so ask that when you call.
Find and check a Colorado pest-control company
PestPin carries 390 source-linked Colorado pest-control business records. Colorado Category 301 covers pesticide work against wood-destroying organisms. An independent inspection-only consultant is not necessarily a commercial pesticide applicator, so confirm both the requested report and any treatment credential rather than treating Category 301 as a universal inspection rule.
Colorado inspection questions
Which Colorado counties are on the VA WDI list?
Alamosa, Arapahoe, Archuleta, Baca, Bent, Chaffee, Cheyenne, Conejos, Costilla, Crowley, Custer, Delta, Dolores, Douglas, El Paso, Elbert, Fremont, Gunnison, Hinsdale, Huerfano, Kiowa, Kit Carson, La Plata, Lake, Las Animas, Lincoln, Mineral, Montezuma, Montrose, Otero, Ouray, Park, Phillips, Prowers, Pueblo, Rio Grande, Saguache, San Juan, San Miguel, Summit, Teller, Washington, and Yuma. Outside those counties, the VA appraisal-trigger rule still applies.
Is NPMA-33 a Colorado state form?
No. It is an industry form that HUD hosts for FHA and VA use. Confirm the form and signer requirements with the lender or other party asking for WDI information.
What does Colorado pesticide Category 301 cover?
It covers pesticide application for wood-destroying organisms. It should not be presented as a blanket rule for every independent inspection-only consultant, especially when no treatment is performed.
Does the Colorado seller disclosure replace an inspection?
No. It records the seller's known information. A buyer who needs a WDI report should order the appropriate inspection and confirm the report requirements separately.
