Fumigation is a serious step — our Ely, IA licensed applicators handle scheduling, tenting, and clearance testing to code. 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.


Structural fumigation requires licensing beyond standard pest-control certification — our applicators hold it.
We plan tenting dates around your relocation needs, coordinated to your timeline as closely as possible.
Quoted by structure size and infestation type, given in writing before tenting begins. Equipment checks happen job by job, not on a fixed calendar, since consistency here isn't something to leave to a schedule.
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.
Licensed application under tent, monitored continuously for concentration and seal integrity.
Gas-level testing confirms the structure is safe before tents come down and re-entry is cleared. Pet relocation guidance is part of the pre-fumigation conversation too, since pets need to vacate on the same timeline as people.
A follow-up visit confirms elimination and flags any remaining conducive conditions once you're back in. We also confirm HOA or building-code tenting requirements ahead of time, since some communities have their own notification rules.
Describe what's been found — full fumigation is reserved for what spot treatment genuinely can't reach.
A licensed applicator inspects the structure to confirm fumigation's warranted and measure cubic footage for quoting.
You get a full written plan covering prep, tenting date, vacate period, and clearance timeline.
Once gas testing clears the property, we walk through re-entry and book a follow-up inspection.
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.

We provide licensed fumigation across Ely and the wider Ely, IA area for both residential and commercial properties. We work with Ely property managers on phased scheduling when a multi-unit building needs treatment without a full shutdown. We also maintain a checklist specific to multi-story versus single-story structures, since tenting logistics differ meaningfully between the two.

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.
The vacate period is short but firm, with precise dates finalized in the plan.
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. Shared-wall buildings sometimes need a coordinated fumigation conversation with neighboring unit owners, which we're glad to help facilitate.
Fumigation eliminates existing infestation; we flag conducive conditions afterward to help reduce reinfestation odds. We recommend checking with attached structures before scheduling, since shared framing can affect fumigation planning.
