Fumigation is a bigger decision than most pest treatments, which is why All Over Pest Control walks you through prep, timing, and clearance requirements before you commit to a date. If a real estate deadline is driving the schedule, tell us early so we can coordinate the tenting date accordingly.
We carry the specific structural fumigation license Takoma Park, MD requires, separate from general pest control credentials. Every fumigation job gets a dedicated coordinator, not a rotating point of contact.
Tenting, gassing, aeration, and tent removal are all handled by our own crew, start to finish. Gas monitoring equipment is calibrated before each job, not assumed accurate from the last one.
Gas monitoring equipment confirms safe re-entry levels before we allow anyone back into the structure. Crew scheduling across Takoma Park, MD accounts for weather conditions that can affect aeration timing. Crew scheduling across Takoma Park, MD accounts for weather conditions that can affect aeration timing.
Prep mistakes cause delays, so we give a specific checklist for food, medication, and plants before the tent goes up. Clearance documentation is issued the same day testing confirms safe re-entry levels.
Fumigation isn't a single step — it's a coordinated process, and each part below is handled by our own licensed crew. One point of contact manages your fumigation from scheduling through clearance, so you're never chasing separate crews for updates.
Drywood termites often infest multiple inaccessible areas at once, which is exactly the scenario whole-structure fumigation is built for. 
For infestations too widespread for localized treatment, fumigation gas penetrates every void in the structure simultaneously.
Licensed crew members install the tent, seal it properly, and apply calibrated sulfuryl fluoride gas per label requirements.
Required aeration time varies by structure size and conditions, and we monitor gas levels directly rather than guessing based on the clock. 
A walk-through before scheduling identifies what needs bagging, removal, or special handling, including plants, food, and medications.
We provide clearance documentation after re-entry testing, useful for insurance claims or real estate closing requirements.
A call to +1-844-564-2570 starts the assessment process, and we'll walk through your timeline since fumigation needs advance planning.
An inspector assesses the extent of infestation and structure size to confirm fumigation is the right approach versus localized treatment.
Expect a written prep list and firm pricing well before tenting day, so there are no surprises on cost or timeline.
We guarantee the process through clearance — the structure isn't released back to you until testing confirms it's safe.
"We resisted fumigation at first, but once they showed us how far the drywood termites had spread, it was clearly necessary."
"Prep checklist was detailed enough that tenting day actually went smoothly with no last-minute scrambling."
"Appreciated that they actually tested the air rather than just telling us a standard wait time had passed."
"Needed a clearance certificate for an insurance claim and they had it ready right after re-entry testing."
"Our closing depended on that clearance certificate, and they worked directly with our agent to hit the deadline."
Fumigation makes sense when infestation has spread through multiple inaccessible areas — an inspector will confirm before recommending it.
Typically a full day including tenting, gas exposure time, and required aeration, though it varies by structure size.
We'll give you a specific list, but generally anything consumable or living needs to leave the structure or be double-bagged.
We test directly rather than estimating — re-entry only happens once monitoring confirms safe levels.
We provide documented clearance certificates that satisfy most insurance and closing requirements.
More than a standard pest call — plan for at least a week or two of lead time depending on crew availability.
