When should I fumigate with Vikane?
If a pest management professional finds any one of the following conditions and your home is infested with drywood termites, whole-structure fumigation with Vikane® gas fumigant is the best treatment option to completely eradicate the infestation. • Home is 5 to 10 years old and has never been fumigated. • Home has been previously spot-treated for drywood termites, and the spot treatment(s) failed. • Home was fumigated 5 to 10 years ago. • Evidence of multiple infestation locations. • Infestations are in inaccessible areas. • Home has extensive, visible drywood termite damage, making it difficult to identify active from inactive infestations. • Drywood termites have swarmed inside the home. • Other homes in the neighborhood have drywood termites. • It is a real estate transaction.
