Fumigating is a pest control method that’s used to get rid of pests, particularly the drywood type of termite, in a structure such as a house. It may also get rid of other types of pests, such as bed bugs and beetles. Trained pest control technicians use gaseous chemicals known as fumigants to kill or suffocate pests. Fumigation may be recommended by Tampa pest control professionals when other, less invasive processes aren’t effective.
In order to ensure that fumigation is effective and that sufficient time has been allowed for complete aeration (which makes it safe for you to re-enter your home), you may need to stay out of the structure for about 72 hours. Our fumigation experts will make sure that the structure is completely free of fumigant before giving you the green light to return.
Items that may be damaged or made unusable by the fumigation process will need to be removed before that process begins. Our team will review the complete list with you, which will include these items and more:
Many other types of items may remain in your home during fumigation, such as some consumable items that are in the original manufacturer’s containers with airtight seals intact, including bottles and cans.
A thorough cleaning should be done to ensure that no items that should have been removed from the house were overlooked and to get rid of dead pests. Cleaning tasks should include wiping down all surfaces, vacuuming floors, furniture, rugs, and inside of drawers and cabinets. This is just a partial list of what should be cleaned after fumigation—please ask your Turner Pest Control fumigation technician for more details.
There are several parts to the overall fumigation process, which your Turner Pest Control technician will be glad to review with you. Generally, fumigation includes:
Fumigation is used because it’s so effective at killing drywood termite colonies, but it does not provide residual effectiveness that would keep these pests from returning. Our termite and fumigation experts can recommend steps you can take to reduce the chances that drywood termites will re-infest your home.
