When drywood termites or stored-product pests spread through a structure, whole-building fumigation reaches what spot treatment can't. We treat the decision seriously, and part of our job is helping you understand honestly whether it's actually necessary first. 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. 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.

When activity spreads through multiple structural members, tenting reaches what spot treatment can't.
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. We walk through pet boarding or relocation options as part of scheduling, since that's often overlooked until the last minute.
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.
We assess in person before recommending fumigation, since it's a bigger step than routine treatment.
You get a full written plan covering prep, tenting date, vacate period, and clearance timeline.
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.

We provide licensed fumigation across Mount Vernon and the wider Mount Vernon, WA area for both residential and commercial properties. Multi-family and commercial structures in Mount Vernon sometimes require phased tenting schedules, coordinated directly with property management. 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. If you're unsure whether fumigation is the right call, we'll walk through alternatives honestly before you schedule anything.
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.
