When drywood termites or stored-product pests spread through a structure, whole-building fumigation reaches what spot treatment can't. Fumigation is a significant undertaking, which is exactly why we walk you through every regulatory requirement before you commit to a date. A structure's age and construction type both factor into how tenting materials get sized and sealed.


We're specifically licensed for fumigant handling, tenting, and clearance protocol under state regulation.
Fumigation accounts for the full vacate-and-return window, not just the tenting day itself.
Quoted by structure size and infestation type, given in writing before tenting begins. Applicators recalibrate gas monitoring equipment before every job rather than assuming a prior calibration still holds.
Commercial-grade tarps, sealing materials, and continuous gas detection throughout treatment. We never rely on a single gas monitor during clearance testing — redundancy is part of the protocol.

Full tenting for colonies distributed through wall voids and framing, not accessible to spot treatment.
Structural fumigation for severe grain moth, weevil, or beetle infestations in pantries or storage structures.
A clear prep checklist arrives ahead of the date so nothing gets missed.
Fumigation follows strict licensed protocol with continuous monitoring throughout tenting.
We don't clear a property until testing confirms fumigant levels are fully within safe limits. Pet relocation guidance is part of the pre-fumigation conversation too, since pets need to vacate on the same timeline as people.
We schedule a check-in inspection after clearance to confirm full elimination. Before scheduling, we check whether your neighborhood has specific tenting notification requirements, so there are no surprises.
Tell us about the infestation scope and structure size so we can determine if fumigation's the right call versus spot treatment.
We assess in person before recommending fumigation, since it's a bigger step than routine treatment.
A complete schedule spelling out prep steps, tenting duration, and re-entry timing.
After tenting and clearance testing, we confirm safe re-entry and schedule a post-treatment follow-up.
Drywood termites had spread through multiple rooms — spot treatment wouldn't have cut it. Tenting was organized start to finish.
They coordinated the whole timeline around our hotel stay so we knew exactly when to leave and return.
Warehouse had a stored-product pest problem that got out of hand. Fumigation and clearance testing got us back operating fast.
The detailed prep checklist meant nothing was left to guesswork about what needed removing.
Historic home with extensive drywood termite galleries throughout the attic framing. Fumigation was the only realistic option and it was handled professionally start to finish.

Coverage includes Soquel and surrounding communities, with crews equipped for homes and larger commercial structures alike. We work with Soquel property managers on phased scheduling when a multi-unit building needs treatment without a full shutdown. Structure type changes the tenting approach enough that we keep separate prep checklists for single-story homes and larger multi-story buildings.

Regular treatment handles localized activity; fumigation covers what's spread too widely for spot treatment. We're happy to answer questions about the process before you commit to anything, including whether a less invasive option might work instead.
Typically a few days, depending on structure size and clearance requirements — we give exact dates during scheduling.
Food, medication, and certain plants generally need removal or special bagging — we provide a full checklist ahead of time.
Structural fumigation is a well-established, code-regulated process under licensed applicators.
Clearance testing measures gas levels before tents come down, and re-entry isn't approved until levels are fully safe. We can also coordinate with a pest control service on neighboring units if your building shares structural framing.
A follow-up inspection and any needed exclusion work help protect against future issues. It also helps to schedule any planned pest treatment for neighboring structures around the same window, since shared walls can reintroduce activity.
A licensed inspection will tell you honestly whether fumigation is actually necessary.
