Termite fumigation is a very thorough method of removing dry wood termites from a structure. Before the service, we will begin with a full inspection of your property to determine the scope of the infestation. If fumigation is recommended, we will schedule a time that works best for you. The whole process takes approximately 3 days and will require you to prep your home before we can begin the tenting process. While your home is securely tented, fumigants will be pumped into the structure which will penetrate all areas termites live. After the fumigation is complete, we will need to remove the tent and air out the home before you can return. Fumigation is a guaranteed service that will keep your home termite free for up to 2 years. Each year, about 100,000 fumigations are conducted in California.
Costs for termite control and repair of damage from drywood termites in California exceeds $300 million annually and are projected to increase! Scientists have shown that fumigation is a reliable and complete method for elimination of infestations of dry wood termites and other pests such as wood-destroying beetles and bed bugs. Products like Vikane and Zythor are preferred for fumigation in southern California because they leave no residue behind after the tenting process has ended.
It is your responsibility to help prepare your home for the fumigation. Taking the following steps prior to fumigation helps ensure its success, resulting in the elimination of dry wood termites from your home. The day before fumigation, water and cut back foliage, shrubbery and landscaping at least 18 inches from the structure to allow room for the tarps.
On the day of fumigation:
- Remove all plants from your home, including those on outdoor patios.
- Evacuate all people and pets from the structure.
- Remove mattresses completely enveloped in plastic, such as baby mattresses with waterproof covers, or remove the covers themselves.
- Remove or double-bag any food, feed, drugs and medicinal in special Nylofume bags your fumigator provides. You do not need to bag or remove items in plastic, glass, or metal bottles, cans or jars with the original manufacturer's airtight seal intact.
- Seal the Nylofume bags one at a time by twisting the tops, or folding down and sealing with tape, twisty ties, string or rubber bands. DO NOT TIE BAGS IN A KNOT. Your fumigator can provide special instructions on proper bagging procedures for you.
- Double-bag cold and frozen foods and leave them in the refrigerator and freezer to make it easier to stack the bags inside.
- Be sure to remove or double-bag anything that will be ingested (medicine, spices, etc.)

TENT FUMIGATION⛺️⛺️⛺️
We offer safe, expert fumigation services designed to provide comprehensive drywood termite control. Fumigation allows us to treat every part your home or business, even those areas that may be covered with drywall or plaster or be located in distant corners of your attic, eaves, or basement. Our fumigation services are guaranteed to eliminate drywood termites.
We only use Vikane® gas for our fumigations. Because it is an inorganic gas, Vikane gas fumigant completely dissipates from a structure following fumigation, leaving no surface residue, odor, or film behind. This means you will not have to wash dishes, linens, clothing, or furnishings after fumigation.
How Fumigations Work
The first step in a fumigation is tenting. Our crew will use a canvas tent to thoroughly seal off your entire home or business from the roof to the foundation. Then one of our licensed fumigators will check that all people, pets, plants, and foods have been removed from the property. Then the fumigator will place the fumigant as well as a smelly, irritating warning agent in specific locations throughout the property. After locking the building and placing the appropriate warning signs, the fumigant will be activated.
The fumigant will be allowed to sit in the building for a set amount of time so that it can penetrate to every corner and kill any termites that might be inside the wood. Then the fumigation crew will remove the tent and begin the aeration period. After the structure is sufficiently aired out, the fumigator will conduct air tests to make sure that it is safe for reentry.
The whole fumigation process usually takes three days and two nights.

Benefits of Fumigation
Fumigation is a tried and true method for eliminating termite infestations within the home. It offers many benefits:
Fumigation allows pesticides to penetrate wood and kill termites in hard to reach places.
You don’t have to locate all termite infestation sites in order to use fumigation against them.
Fumigation is cost-effective, especially for extensive infestations.
Fumigation is safe when proper protocols are followed.
Are fumigations safe?
Fumigations are highly regulated by the State of California. To perform fumigations, companies must be registered with SPCB (Structural Pest Control Board). Pest control companies may also be required to notify local fire departments before a fumigation takes place. The California Department of Pesticide Regulation registers all fumigants used in the state and oversees local pesticide use enforcement by agricultural commissioners in each of the state’s 58 counties. If you have any questions about the safety of fumigants, chemicals, or pesticides, you may want to check out these Fumigation Facts. You can also contact your local county agricultural commissioner to find out more useful info.
Please give us a call if you have any questions about our fumigation services, or wish to schedule an appointment for a termite fumigation.
