Termite Fumigation
Nobody wants to fumigate.
It’s a major hassle: you have to bag all your food, move your indoor plants, leave your home for two nights, and allow strangers access to every part of your home.
But fumigation remains the most effective, comprehensive termite treatment available. Localized treatments can work well — when every area of infestation is accessible – but what about termites hidden deep inside your walls?
If you’re the type who doesn’t hesitate to rip off a bandage, California Termite will make the process as smooth as possible — at the very least, we won’t add to the stress. One of our professionals will guide you through every step. We know what to look out for, so you won’t be caught off guard.
And guess what? We can beat any other company’s pricing — try us!
Afterward, we stand behind our work with a two-year warranty. If the fumigation fails (it’s rare, but it can happen), we’ll refumigate your home at no cost. We’ll also clean up or mask all visible signs of termite activity — both to monitor the treatment’s effectiveness and to prevent old evidence from being mistaken for new infestation.
One year after your fumigation, we’ll return for a full, complimentary inspection to confirm the treatment’s success. At the end of your two-year warranty, you’ll have the option to extend it. As long as you keep your warranty active, we’ll inspect your home every year and treat any new termite activity we find.
Our termite inspections are always free. If you think you might have termites, contact California Termite today — we’re here to help.
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.
