Termite Fumigation (Tent Fumigation) in Hawaiʻi
Whole-structure tent fumigation for drywood termites. Local, licensed Xtermco technicians handle inspection, prep guidance, safe treatment, and clearance across Oʻahu.
Island-Trusted Tent Fumigation
When drywood termites spread through multiple areas of a structure, whole-structure tent fumigation is the gold standard. Xtermco’s licensed team provides safe, effective fumigation for homes, townhomes, condos, and commercial buildings across Oʻahu.
Signs You May Need Fumigation
- Sand-like pellets (frass) collecting under tiny “kick-out” holes
- Blistered or hollow-sounding wood, pin-sized holes in trim/doors
- Winged termites or piles of shed wings near windows and lights
- Activity in multiple rooms or inaccessible voids
Our 5-Step Process
- Inspection & Proposal: Confirm species and scope; provide a clear, written plan.
- Prep Guidance: Simple checklist for food/medications, pets/plants, access, and lodging.
- Tenting & Dosing: Structure is sealed; fumigant is introduced per label and site conditions.
- Aeration & Clearance: Tarps removed and ventilated; re-entry allowed only after clearance readings.
- Report & Warranty: Documentation of work performed.
How to Prepare
- Remove or double-bag non-factory-sealed food and ingestible medicines (including pet food and baby formula).
- Board pets and remove houseplants and aquariums.
- Provide clear access around the building; trim vegetation as needed.
- Plan to be out of the structure for approximately 24 hours (setup, exposure, aeration).
Fumigation vs. Localized Treatments
Fumigation reaches hidden colonies throughout the structure and is recommended for widespread drywood termite activity. Localized treatments are best for isolated areas or early findings and may require follow-up. We’ll recommend the right option after inspection.
