When drywood termite damage is spread across multiple wall sections or floors, spot treatment can't reach every colony — tent fumigation with sulfuryl fluoride is what clears the entire structure at once. Because the gas penetrates solid wood rather than just surface cracks, fumigation reaches colonies living deep inside framing that no injection or spray treatment could ever access.
A licensed fumigator walks the structure with you to explain exactly what tenting involves before you commit.


Structural fumigation legally requires specialized certification, which our lead fumigators carry and maintain.
Scheduling accounts for your move-out and move-back-in dates so the process is as predictable as possible.
Pricing is quoted based on structure size and tenting complexity, given in full before any tarps go up.
Our tenting equipment and gas detection tools meet state fumigation compliance requirements at every stage.
Tenting reaches areas spot treatment physically cannot — inside solid wood framing, not just surface-level cracks.
We recommend fumigation specifically when inspection shows damage in locations that localized injection treatment can't reach.
Our team walks you through exactly what needs to leave the structure and what can safely stay sealed inside.
After gas exposure, the structure is aerated and tested with certified equipment before we clear it safe for re-entry.
We manage the added complexity of fumigating occupied multi-unit buildings with proper notice and scheduling.
You'll receive full documentation of the fumigation, including gas application records and clearance certification.

Tell dispatch about the extent of damage found so a licensed fumigator can assess whether tenting is the right call.
Our fumigation lead arrives to walk the property and explain the process before any commitment is made.
Assessment includes a clear timeline for tenting, gas exposure, aeration, and when you can safely return.
The structure is tented, treated, aerated, and clearance-tested before we certify it safe for re-entry.
Knowing exactly when we could move back in made planning around the fumigation so much less stressful.
The clearance documentation they provided was exactly what our insurance company needed on file.
The inspector was honest that our case didn't actually need full fumigation and recommended localized treatment instead, which saved us real money.
The prep checklist they sent ahead of time made packing up the kitchen and moving out for a few days far less chaotic than we expected.

Nex Pest Control dispatches licensed fumigators throughout Greenup and nearby communities for structural tenting projects of any size. We handle single-family homes, multi-unit buildings, and commercial structures across Greenup, each with its own tenting and coordination plan.

Fumigation is recommended specifically when damage is spread across multiple areas that localized treatment can't fully reach.
Typically a few days, covering gas application, exposure time, and aeration before clearance testing confirms it's safe to return.
Most furniture and belongings can stay sealed inside; it's primarily consumables and living things that need to be removed.
The gas dissipates completely during aeration, and we don't clear the structure until testing confirms it.
Compliance paperwork covering the entire process is available whenever you need it on file.
Yes, we coordinate larger tenting projects including tenant notification and scheduling for multi-unit structures.
