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. Because the gas penetrates solid wood rather than just surface cracks, fumigation reaches colonies living deep inside framing that no injection or spray treatment could ever access.
A licensed fumigator walks the structure with you to explain exactly what tenting involves before you commit.


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.
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.
Larger commercial buildings and multi-unit structures get coordinated tenting plans accounting for tenant notification and timing.
Compliance paperwork is provided for insurance, real estate, or regulatory purposes on request.

Call +1-866-315-0243 to schedule a fumigation suitability assessment for your Kinston 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.
Appreciated that they didn't just upsell us into tenting when a smaller treatment would have worked.
The prep checklist they sent ahead of time made packing up the kitchen and moving out for a few days far less chaotic than we expected.

Nex Pest Control dispatches licensed fumigators throughout Kinston 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 Kinston 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.
Yes, we provide full fumigation and clearance documentation on request for insurance claims or property transactions.
Commercial fumigation follows the same process with additional planning for occupied buildings.
