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 Washington, IL 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.
We test clearance levels directly rather than estimating based on aeration time alone, so re-entry is confirmed safe. Crew scheduling across Washington, IL accounts for weather conditions that can affect aeration timing.
We walk you through exactly what needs to be removed, bagged, or double-bagged before tenting day, including food and plants. Clearance documentation is issued the same day testing confirms safe re-entry levels. 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.
Whole-structure sulfuryl fluoride fumigation reaches drywood termite galleries that localized spot treatment can't access throughout the building. 
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.
We use monitoring equipment to confirm safe levels before removing the tent, not just a standard aeration countdown. 
We flag anything on the property that needs special prep, from pet medications to houseplants, before the tenting date is set.
We provide clearance documentation after re-entry testing, useful for insurance claims or real estate closing requirements.
Call +1-844-564-2570 to schedule an assessment — fumigation typically requires more lead time than a standard treatment, so early scheduling matters.
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."
"Nothing about tenting day was chaotic because the prep checklist told us exactly what to handle in advance."
"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."
We only recommend fumigation when it's genuinely necessary; localized treatment is often enough for smaller drywood termite activity.
Plan for a full day away, though your inspector will give a specific estimate based on your Washington, IL property's 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.
