Common pests treated with fumigation

Fumigation is an effective method for dealing with a wide range of pests. The most common pests treated with fumigation Canberra include:

  • Termites: Termites can cause significant structural damage, and fumigation provides a thorough treatment for minimising entire colonies.
  • Rodents: Rodents like rats and mice are often difficult to manage without fumigation, especially when they have nested in hidden areas.
  • Stored product pests: These pests, including grain beetles and moths, infest food storage areas and can be effectively treated with fumigation.
  • Bed bugs: Fumigation is a powerful solution to reduce bed bugs that are resistant to other forms of pest control.
  • Cockroaches: For severe cockroach infestations, fumigation can target the insects hiding deep within walls and other concealed areas.

Rentokil’s fumigation services target pests in their nests, hiding spots, and other difficult-to-reach areas, ensuring a complete and lasting solution.

Rentokil pest fumigation services

We offer a range of solutions to treat stored product insects (SPIs), cockroaches, textile pests, bed bugs, and dry wood termites in both commercial and residential environments across Canberra. Additionally, we provide specialised services for global trade to help prevent the spread of exotic pests, ensuring your property remains protected from international pest threats.

Container fumigation

The process of import or export provides pests many opportunities to infest the cargo and enter into the country. Quarantine fumigation of cargo containers keeps these disease-carrying pests from doing so.

Cargo & transport fumigation

Fumigation is a fast and effective process, with no negative impact on disinfected goods. Once fumigated, wooden packaging remains a safe means of transport.

Silo & bunker fumigation

Pests in food can infest grain and commodities, resulting in loss of revenue and damaging your business’ reputation.

Structural fumigation

Our structural fumigation solution involves securely covering a building and applying fumigant gas to permeate the entire structure. It is an effective solution for food processing plants, manufacturing facilities, warehousing and residential homes.

Fumigation safety tips for homes and businesses

Fumigation is a safe and effective way to treat severe pest infestations, but it is essential to follow safety guidelines to protect everyone in the vicinity. Here are some key safety tips:

  • Vacate the area: Ensure that everyone, including pets, leaves the property during the fumigation process.
  • Seal off all areas: Before fumigation, ensure all doors, windows, and vents are sealed to prevent the escape of gas and to ensure full treatment.
  • Ventilation: After the fumigation is completed, the property should be properly ventilated to clear out any remaining gas.
  • Follow instructions: Rentokil will provide detailed instructions on what to do before and after the fumigation to ensure the safety of your property and those within it.

Rentokil’s expert fumigation team will guide you through all the necessary steps to ensure the process is completed safely and effectively.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Fumigation is effective against a wide range of pests, including termites, rodents, bed bugs, cockroaches, stored product insects (SPIs), and dry wood termites. It is especially useful when pests are difficult to reach with traditional pest control methods.

Fumigation is a highly effective method that involves the use of a gas to eliminate pests in hard-to-reach places, such as within walls or under floors. Unlike surface treatments like sprays, fumigation can target entire infestations, including pests hidden in nests or concealed areas, providing a more comprehensive solution.

Yes, when carried out by professionals, fumigation is safe for your family and pets. Rentokil ensures that the property is vacated before treatment and that proper safety procedures are followed. Once the fumigation is complete, the area is ventilated, and gas levels are monitored to ensure it’s safe to re-enter.

The fumigation process typically takes several hours, depending on the size of the property and the severity of the infestation. After fumigation, the property must be ventilated, which may take an additional few hours. Rentokil ensures that the process is completed as quickly and safely as possible.

Before fumigation, Rentokil will provide detailed instructions on how to prepare your property. This includes evacuating all people and pets, sealing food items, and ensuring any necessary areas are accessible. Proper preparation is essential for effective fumigation and safety.

The cost of fumigation Canberra depends on factors such as the size of your property, the type of pest being treated, and the extent of the infestation. Rentokil provides transparent pricing after an initial assessment, ensuring you receive a fair and competitive quote.
