Pests That Fumigation Could Treat
Fumigation is used to treat a wide variety of area pests. We resort to this method when the pest problems extend past the reach of conventional treatments. Termites are a great example of this. These wood-destroying insects infest deep into the structural wood of homes. Fumigation floods into their tunnels and eliminates these pests wherever they are hiding. Other common pests in Tampa for which we use this method include bed bugs, wood-boring beetles, and fabric/museum pests. To determine if your home needs fumigation, schedule a detailed pest inspection. This is the best way to assess your risk and it will allow our technicians an opportunity to identify the extent of your pest problems.
Do I Need Fumigation?
Pest problems come in a variety of shapes and sizes. If you catch an invasive species early, the methods used to get them out will be much different than if you notice an infestation after it has been active for years. Fumigation is used mainly for homes that are overrun with pest problems or when dealing with a species that hides deep inside wall voids or structural wood. It can also be used to guarantee elimination if you want to make sure your problem is fully taken care of. It all comes down to your individual needs.
How To Prepare Your Home Or Business For Fumigation
Fumigation is a detailed process that does require a bit of preparation on your part. Before we can treat your home, you must remove all living things including your pets and any non-ornamental plants. Any open boxes of food must be removed or stored in sealed containers. This is also true for medicines, tobacco products, and other similar items. Soak dirt areas and garden beds that are adjacent to your home. This will help with the seal for the tent. It also helps to rake away gravel and dirt that touches your home’s exterior. Finally, make sure that all interior doors and cabinets are open. This will allow the fumigant to get into any areas where pests might be hiding. If you need assistance with preparing your home, our team would be more than happy to help. Our passion is helping our community find freedom from pest problems. We are willing to go above and beyond to make sure you and your home are well taken care of.
