What is Commercial Fumigation?

What is commercial fumigation?


There are few treatment options that can compete with fumigation when it comes to eradicating specific pests. It can get to places that sprays, aerosols, dusts, and other chemical treatments cannot. It quickly resolves large-scale issues. It kills pests at all stages of development, from eggs to adult bugs. Furthermore, a fumigation does not necessitate a lengthy process of inspection, treatment, and monitoring. It's like hitting the reset button on pests. But it is often the ability to apply fumigation to sensitive environments that makes it the ideal solution for commercial property.


The word fumigation can be intimidating, but here at A1 Pest Masters, we can say that we are pest control experts who are experts in fumigation techniques. We understand how stressful it can be to think about the big tents, having to stay away from the building for a while, and the use of fumigants in your workplace, but we do everything we can to allay your fears with professionalism and courtesy.


When localized methods fail, our fumigation methods are required. Spot treatments and other methods are sometimes insufficient to eradicate an infestation that is too large or too difficult to eradicate. We also offer fumigation services for pests in containers, silos, warehouses, and other structures.


The good news is that fumigation usually only requires one application to completely eliminate pests such as stored product pests, fleas, cockroaches, termites, and other wood-destroying pests. We also employ a method that leaves no residue, odor, or film on the surfaces treated.


Do you have a flour or grain beetle infestation? That is a vexing pest issue to deal with. These insects get into everything, and applying pesticides to food products will render them unfit for human consumption. Because fumigants are gaseous and leave no residue, they directly target the invading pest while causing no harm to the infested produce. Whether you need to treat a large warehouse or a single boxcar, barge, or storeroom, fumigation is the right tool for the job.


Is it your responsibility to safeguard wooden antiquities? When termites or wood-boring insects infest antique items, you need a pest control method that penetrates deeply without causing damage. Fumigation can be used to address minor issues like this. While large tents are typically associated with fumigation, this method can be used to address items as small as a single book on a much smaller scale. In fact, fumigation is ideal for eradicating book-invading pests.


Is your industry involved with pharmaceuticals? When it comes to bio-decontamination, fumigation is the way to go. The gases used will kill tiny bacteria without leaving a residue. Cleaning areas are not only available for all uses once the treatment is finished, but this treatment method also complies with FDA regulatory requirements.

Interior planning

  • Extinguish any open flames or other heat sources.

  • Allow for complete penetration and aeration by opening doors, cabinets, and equipment throughout the home or facility.

  • Remove any live objects that may not be able to withstand fumigation (i.e. live plants and pets)


Exterior prepping

  • Lock all exterior doors and windows, or at least ensure that they can be locked. Provide any necessary keys so that all areas of the property can be fumigated.
