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.
A licensed fumigator walks the structure with you to explain exactly what tenting involves before you commit.


Every fumigation job is directed by a technician holding a specific state fumigation license, separate from standard pest licensing.
Scheduling accounts for your move-out and move-back-in dates so the process is as predictable as possible.
You'll see one written quote covering tenting, gas application, aeration, and clearance testing.
We use sulfuryl fluoride gas with certified monitoring equipment to confirm safe concentration and clearance levels.
Tenting reaches areas spot treatment physically cannot — inside solid wood framing, not just surface-level cracks.
When drywood termite colonies are spread across multiple areas of a structure, fumigation eliminates all of them in one treatment.
Our team walks you through exactly what needs to leave the structure and what can safely stay sealed inside.
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.
You'll receive full documentation of the fumigation, including gas application records and clearance certification.

Tell dispatch about the extent of damage found so a licensed fumigator can assess whether tenting is the right call.
A licensed fumigator inspects the structure and confirms whether tenting is necessary versus a more localized alternative.
Assessment includes a clear timeline for tenting, gas exposure, aeration, and when you can safely return.
The structure is tented, treated, aerated, and clearance-tested before we certify it safe for re-entry.
Our drywood termite damage was spread across two floors and spot treatment just wasn't going to cut it. The fumigation team walked us through every step of the tenting process.
As a property manager for a multi-unit building, coordinating tenant notification for fumigation seemed daunting, but Nex Pest Control handled the scheduling and paperwork.
The inspector was honest that our case didn't actually need full fumigation and recommended localized treatment instead, which saved us real money.
The prep checklist they sent ahead of time made packing up the kitchen and moving out for a few days far less chaotic than we expected.

Nex Pest Control dispatches licensed fumigators throughout Mart and nearby communities for structural tenting projects of any size. We handle single-family homes, multi-unit buildings, and commercial structures across Mart, each with its own tenting and coordination plan.

A licensed fumigator will assess your case honestly and recommend a smaller treatment if that's genuinely sufficient.
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.
The gas dissipates completely during aeration, and we don't clear the structure until testing confirms it.
Compliance paperwork covering the entire process is available whenever you need it on file.
Commercial fumigation follows the same process with additional planning for occupied buildings.
