A structural fumigation involves sealing the entire building under tent and monitoring gas concentration precisely — this isn't a service to hire without a state-licensed fumigator directing every stage. State fumigation licensing is separate from general pest control licensing, and it's worth confirming any company quoting tenting work actually holds it before you sign anything.
A licensed fumigator walks the structure with you to explain exactly what tenting involves before you commit.


Every fumigation job is directed by a technician holding a specific state fumigation license, separate from standard pest licensing.
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.
When drywood termite colonies are spread across multiple areas of a structure, fumigation eliminates all of them in one treatment.
We provide a full prep checklist covering food removal, plant relocation, and pet arrangements before tenting day.
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.
A licensed fumigator inspects the structure and confirms whether tenting is necessary versus a more localized alternative.
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.
As a property manager for a multi-unit building, coordinating tenant notification for fumigation seemed daunting, but Nex Pest Control handled the scheduling and paperwork.
Appreciated that they didn't just upsell us into tenting when a smaller treatment would have worked.
Buying an older home with visible drywood damage in three separate rooms, fumigation ended up being the only option that made sense, and the crew explained every stage of tenting clearly.

Nex Pest Control dispatches licensed fumigators throughout Leonardtown and nearby communities for structural tenting projects of any size. Project size varies widely, but the same licensed oversight and clearance testing standard applies to every Leonardtown fumigation job we run.

Inspection findings, not a sales pitch, determine whether tenting is the right call for your structure.
We'll give you a specific timeline based on your structure size once the assessment is complete.
Food items, medications, and plants typically need to leave, along with pets — we provide a full checklist ahead of time.
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.
Commercial fumigation follows the same process with additional planning for occupied buildings.
