Termite Fumigation
Termite Fumigation Overview:
Positives:
- Primary Recommendation: Fumigation is the preferred method by the State of California for severe infestations.
- Comprehensive Treatment: It is the most thorough approach, targeting the entire structure and ensuring that all termites, even those in hidden areas, are killed.
Negatives:
- Temporary Relocation: You must vacate your home for a minimum of two nights during the process.
- Ingestible Items: All food and ingestible items that aren’t factory sealed in cans or bottles must be bagged.
- Damage Risks: Surrounding plants and landscaping may be harmed, and there’s a potential risk of roof damage.
- Preparation Needed: A clear path around your home is required so the tent can securely reach the ground.
- No Residual Protection: Fumigation eliminates termites present during the treatment but doesn’t leave any residual chemicals to protect against future infestations.
Why Choose California Termite for Fumigations:
- Post-Treatment Follow-up: After fumigation, we return within a month to remove or mask termite droppings in your attic and garage. This helps us evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment and prevents confusion between old and new droppings in future inspections.
- Expert Management: With experience handling hundreds of fumigations, we ensure everything is prepared correctly to prevent last-minute delays that could cause postponements after you’re already set for the process.
- Future Protection: Our follow-up inspections and localized treatments can help you avoid the need for another fumigation down the road, offering a more convenient and cost-effective solution in the future.
- Our approach emphasizes why working with a company like California Termite offers added benefits beyond just the fumigation itself, ensuring peace of mind through follow-ups and preventative measures.
