Fumigation is the process of applying a fumigant to a sealed area to eradicate pests at all stages of life. This process is extremely effective, time saving, and boasts a zero-insect tolerance. Let us answer a few frequently asked questions about fumigation and explain how Bizzy Bee Exterminators can help:
When is fumigation necessary?
Fumigation is necessary when preventative action is not an option anymore, as the number of insects has multiplied beyond regular pest control methods can control. A Bizzy Bee Exterminator will visit your property and determine if fumigation is right for you. If it is, you can be confident that the fumigant will reach even the tiniest cracks and spaces to eliminate the insects.
If fumigation is not yet necessary, we will discuss alternative options like preventative measures and pest control methods.
What type of pests does fumigation kill?
