When drywood termites or stored-product pests are distributed throughout a structure, whole-building fumigation reaches what spot treatment can't. Fumigation is a significant undertaking, which is exactly why we walk you through every regulatory requirement before you commit to a tenting date.


Structural fumigation requires specialized state licensing beyond standard pest control certification — our applicators hold it.
We plan tenting dates around your temporary relocation needs, typically requiring the structure be vacated for a set period.
Pricing is based on structure cubic footage and infestation type, quoted in writing before tenting begins.
We use commercial-grade tarps, sealing materials, and gas detection equipment to monitor fumigant concentration throughout treatment. Beyond the treatment itself, we can provide the documentation many insurance policies require to process a related claim.
Full tenting treatment for drywood termite colonies distributed throughout wall voids and framing, not accessible to spot treatment.
Structural fumigation for severe grain moth, weevil, or beetle infestations in pantries, warehouses, or food-storage structures.
Proper preparation before tenting is critical for safety and effectiveness; we provide a clear prep checklist ahead of the date.
The fumigation itself is performed under strict licensed protocol, with continuous monitoring throughout the tenting period.
We don't clear a property for re-entry until gas testing confirms fumigant levels are fully within safe limits.
After clearance, we schedule a check-in inspection to confirm the treatment achieved full elimination. Every fumigation crew also carries backup monitoring equipment, since redundant gas readings are part of doing this safely.

Describe what's been found and where — full fumigation is reserved for infestations spot treatment genuinely can't reach.
We assess the property firsthand before recommending fumigation, since it's a bigger undertaking than routine treatment.
You'll get a complete schedule spelling out prep steps, tenting duration, and exactly when re-entry clearance happens.
After tenting and clearance testing, we confirm the structure is safe for re-entry and schedule a post-treatment follow-up.
Drywood termites had spread through multiple rooms — spot treatment wouldn't have cut it. Tenting process was well-organized start to finish.
They coordinated the whole timeline around our hotel stay so we knew exactly when to leave and return.
Warehouse had a stored-product pest problem that had gotten out of hand. Fumigation and clearance testing got us back operating fast.
Appreciated the detailed prep checklist beforehand — nothing was left to guesswork about what needed to be removed.
Historic home with extensive drywood termite galleries throughout the attic framing. Fumigation was the only realistic option and it was handled professionally start to finish.

Coverage includes Richmond and surrounding Richmond, MN communities, with fumigation crews equipped for both homes and larger commercial structures. We work with Richmond property managers on phased fumigation scheduling when a multi-unit building needs treatment without shutting down the entire property at once. We also confirm HOA or building-code tenting requirements ahead of time, since some communities have their own notification rules for scheduled fumigation.

Fumigation treats the entire structure under a sealed tent, reaching infestations distributed throughout the building, while spot treatment targets specific accessible areas.
Typically a few days, depending on structure size and fumigant clearance requirements — we'll give you exact dates during scheduling.
Food, medications, and certain plants generally need to be removed or specially bagged — we provide a complete prep checklist ahead of time.
Yes — licensed fumigation follows strict regulatory protocols specifically designed to treat structures safely without damage.
Clearance testing measures fumigant gas levels before tents come down, and re-entry isn't authorized until levels are fully safe.
While fumigation clears current activity thoroughly, a follow-up inspection and any needed exclusion work help protect against future issues. We recommend checking with attached or adjacent structures before scheduling, since shared framing can sometimes affect fumigation planning.
A licensed inspection will tell you honestly whether fumigation is actually necessary for your situation.
