What is the primary goal of WDI application?

Effective pest attraction
Complete control of target pests
Minimization of pesticide use
Prevention of pest damage

The correct answer is: Complete control of target pests

The primary goal of WDI (Wood-Destroying Insect) application is to achieve complete control of target pests. This involves effectively managing infestations of wood-destroying insects, such as termites and wood-boring beetles, to protect structures and wooden materials from damage. Ensuring complete control is essential for long-term structural integrity, as these pests can cause severe damage if left unchecked. While minimizing pesticide use and preventing pest damage are important considerations in pest management, they serve as supporting objectives rather than the main goal. Effective pest attraction is not typically a goal in pest control practices. Instead, the focus is on action taken to eliminate or suppress pest populations to safeguard property and maintain safety.
