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. 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.
We inspect the extent of damage first, since fumigation is only recommended when localized treatment genuinely won't reach every colony.


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.
You'll see one written quote covering tenting, gas application, aeration, and clearance testing.
We use sulfuryl fluoride gas with certified monitoring equipment to confirm safe concentration and clearance levels.
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.
Clearance testing confirms gas levels are safe before anyone, including our own crew, re-enters the building.
Larger commercial buildings and multi-unit structures get coordinated tenting plans accounting for tenant notification and timing.
You'll receive full documentation of the fumigation, including gas application records and clearance certification.

Call +1-866-315-0243 to schedule a fumigation suitability assessment for your Berne property.
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.
Our drywood termite damage was spread across two floors and spot treatment just wasn't going to cut it. The fumigation team walked us through every step of the tenting process.
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.
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 Berne 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 Berne fumigation job we run.

A licensed fumigator will assess your case honestly and recommend a smaller treatment if that's genuinely sufficient.
Typically a few days, covering gas application, exposure time, and aeration before clearance testing confirms it's safe to return.
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.
