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.


Structural fumigation requires licensing beyond standard pest-control certification — our applicators hold it.
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. Equipment checks happen job by job, not on a fixed calendar, since consistency here isn't something to leave to a schedule.
Our equipment includes structural tenting systems and gas monitors required for code-compliant fumigation. 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.
We treat infestations that have spread beyond what sealing and trapping can reasonably handle.
We walk you through removing food, medication, and plants, and double-bagging items per protocol.
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.
A follow-up visit confirms elimination and flags any remaining conducive conditions once you're back in. Before scheduling, we check whether your neighborhood has specific tenting notification requirements, so there are no surprises.
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.
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 Grand Rapids and surrounding communities, with crews equipped for homes and larger commercial structures alike. We work with Grand Rapids 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.
We walk you through exactly what needs bagging or removal before tenting day.
Structural fumigation is a well-established, code-regulated process under licensed applicators.
We use monitoring equipment to confirm safe levels before certifying re-entry — no guessing. We can also coordinate with a pest control service on neighboring units if your building shares structural framing.
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.
A licensed inspection will tell you honestly whether fumigation is actually necessary.
