When Should I Fumigate My House?

When Should I Fumigate My House?

Fumigation is a powerful method for eliminating serious pest infestations. But it’s not always the first step in pest control.

Key signs & situations that call for full-scale fumigation…

You Have a Severe Infestation

If pests like termites, bed bugs, or wood-boring beetles have spread throughout your home & other treatments haven’t worked, fumigation may be the best option. It’s designed to reach pests hiding deep in walls, floors, & hard-to-access areas.

Other Treatments Have Failed

If you’ve tried sprays, baits, or localized treatments with little success, fumigation offers a whole-structure solution. It penetrates the entire home & eliminates pests in a single treatment.

Termite or Bed Bug Infestations

Termites & bed bugs are especially difficult to remove with standard treatments. When these pests are widespread or inaccessible, fumigation ensures they’re eliminated at every life stage, eggs, larvae, & adults.

You’re Preparing to Sell or Rent the Property

Fumigation can be a smart move before selling or renting a home, especially if you suspect or discover a pest issue during an inspection. It provides peace of mind to potential buyers or tenants.

Annual or Preventive Maintenance (in High-Risk Areas)

In regions where termite activity is common, some homeowners opt for periodic fumigation as a preventive measure. This is especially true in warm, humid climates where pests are more active year-round.

You should consider fumigating your home when you have a serious or recurring pest problem that hasn’t responded to other treatments.
