Visual inspection library · Property and facilities
Give a pest professional a clear visual record of what was seen and where. Film the room first, then the signs, affected packaging and a possible access gap without disturbing the area.
Hold to record. Keep holding while you film and speak; release to save the clip and its transcribed answer.
Four 9:16 example clips generated in Google Flow. Fictional inspection; no customer site is shown.
App-style example using Google Flow footage. The animated recording interface and gradually appearing words are scripted; no real inspection or live transcription took place.
The full visual example
Each short clip shows one point in the guided route. The footage is AI-generated and the observations are scripted examples, not findings from a real inspection.
Film the room entrance, shelving and wall or floor zone so a reviewer can locate later close-ups. Record the room identifier and avoid people or confidential labels.
The room entrance, lower shelving and skirting are shown as an establishing view; the example does not show a pest.
From a safe standing position, show the small particles or marks and an adjacent fixed feature. Do not touch, sweep, sample or identify them from the clip alone.
Small dark pellet-like particles are visible by the skirting and shelf leg. Their origin and age are unknown.
Show a damaged-looking package corner in relation to its shelf and nearby goods. Avoid opening or moving a potentially affected package for filming.
A lower-shelf cardboard package has a rough-looking torn corner and paper fibres. The cause is not established.
Record the accessible gap around a wall penetration and the surrounding surface. Do not claim it is an entry route without assessment.
A small visible gap surrounds a service-pipe penetration near the floor. No animal passage is shown.
Identify the premises, room, visit date and recorder. Begin with a wide establishing view. Then record visible signs, damaged-looking packaging and an accessible service gap, stating exactly where each was seen. Do not move contaminated materials just to film. Footage records appearance and location. It cannot identify a pest, confirm current activity, establish an entry route or prescribe treatment. A competent professional must assess the real premises.
