Whole-House fumigation details, process overview
What the service is: Whole-house fumigation is the most effective method for eliminating drywood termites throughout an entire structure. This treatment involves covering the home with a protective tent and introducing a fumigant that penetrates deep into the wood, reaching hidden colonies that spot treatments can’t access. After the fumigation is complete and the home is cleared, it is safe to re-enter and enjoy a termite-free environment.
​
Why’ it’s important: Drywood termites can hide deep inside walls, attics, and wood framing, often causing major damage before they’re detected. Fumigation ensures complete eradication, giving homeowners peace of mind knowing that termites have been eliminated — not just treated on the surface. For larger or advanced infestations, fumigation is often the most reliable and long-lasting solution.
