When drywood termite damage is spread across multiple wall sections or floors, spot treatment can't reach every colony — tent fumigation with sulfuryl fluoride is what clears the entire structure at once. State fumigation licensing is separate from general pest control licensing, and it's worth confirming any company quoting tenting work actually holds it before you sign anything.
We inspect the extent of damage first, since fumigation is only recommended when localized treatment genuinely won't reach every colony.


Structural fumigation legally requires specialized certification, which our lead fumigators carry and maintain.
We coordinate tenting, gas exposure time, and aeration clearance into a clear timeline so you know exactly when you can re-enter.
Pricing is quoted based on structure size and tenting complexity, given in full before any tarps go up.
Our tenting equipment and gas detection tools meet state fumigation compliance requirements at every stage.
The entire structure is sealed under tarpaulin and treated with fumigant gas that penetrates every wall void and framing member.
When drywood termite colonies are spread across multiple areas of a structure, fumigation eliminates all of them in one treatment.
We provide a full prep checklist covering food removal, plant relocation, and pet arrangements before tenting day.
After gas exposure, the structure is aerated and tested with certified equipment before we clear it safe for re-entry.
Larger commercial buildings and multi-unit structures get coordinated tenting plans accounting for tenant notification and timing.
Compliance paperwork is provided for insurance, real estate, or regulatory purposes on request.

Tell dispatch about the extent of damage found so a licensed fumigator can assess whether tenting is the right call.
Our fumigation lead arrives to walk the property and explain the process before any commitment is made.
Assessment includes a clear timeline for tenting, gas exposure, aeration, and when you can safely return.
Guarantee coverage means any surviving drywood activity after fumigation is addressed at no additional charge.
Knowing exactly when we could move back in made planning around the fumigation so much less stressful.
The clearance documentation they provided was exactly what our insurance company needed on file.
The inspector was honest that our case didn't actually need full fumigation and recommended localized treatment instead, which saved us real money.
Buying an older home with visible drywood damage in three separate rooms, fumigation ended up being the only option that made sense, and the crew explained every stage of tenting clearly.

Nex Pest Control dispatches licensed fumigators throughout Fowler and nearby communities for structural tenting projects of any size. Project size varies widely, but the same licensed oversight and clearance testing standard applies to every Fowler fumigation job we run.

Fumigation is recommended specifically when damage is spread across multiple areas that localized treatment can't fully reach.
Typically a few days, covering gas application, exposure time, and aeration before clearance testing confirms it's safe to return.
Most furniture and belongings can stay sealed inside; it's primarily consumables and living things that need to be removed.
Yes — clearance testing with certified equipment confirms gas levels are safe before we allow anyone back inside.
Compliance paperwork covering the entire process is available whenever you need it on file.
Yes, we coordinate larger tenting projects including tenant notification and scheduling for multi-unit structures.
