Professional Fumigation Services in Corona: Safe, Complete Pest Elimination

The Most Effective Solution for Deep Infestations in Corona

When pests take over, fumigation clears the way. Safely. Completely.

When pests like drywood termites or bed bugs burrow deep into your home’s structure, standard sprays just don’t reach them. Fumigation is a big step, but it is often the only way to hit the reset button and guarantee a completely pest-free environment. You need a team that prioritizes safety and precision above all else to get the job done right the first time.

At Allied Pest Control, we have served the Corona community since 2001, helping homeowners handle complex infestations with zero stress. We manage the entire process—from the initial safety prep to the final air clearance test—so you never have to worry. If you are ready to reclaim your home, we are ready to help.

Why Fumigation is Critical for Corona Properties

Corona is a beautiful place to live, but our specific local environment creates unique challenges for homeowners. The combination of older suburban neighborhoods, warm, dry weather, and proximity to open natural spaces makes our area a hotspot for wood-destroying organisms and invasive pests. Unlike surface-level bugs that can be handled with a simple spray, pests locally often adapt by hiding where you can’t see them.

Structural fumigation is often the necessary solution because certain infestations are physically impossible to reach with localized methods. Drywood termites, for instance, live entirely inside the wood beams of your attic, walls, and subfloor. They do not need contact with the ground, meaning they can thrive undetected for years. By the time you see "frass" (termite droppings) or swarmers on your windowsill, the colony is likely well-established deep within the framing of the house.

Similarly, severe bed bug infestations or wood-boring beetles can retreat into the tiniest crevices of furniture, electronics, and wall voids. In these scenarios, fumigation offers the only 100% kill commitment. It turns the air inside your home into a pest-control agent, penetrating every single crack, pore, and void to eliminate the infestation at its source.

Our Complete Fumigation Process in Corona: What to Expect

We understand that the idea of tenting your home can feel overwhelming. That is why Allied Pest Control focuses on transparency. We don’t just show up and throw a tarp over your roof; we engineer a controlled environment to ensure safety and effectiveness. Here is the detailed breakdown of how we handle structural fumigation in Corona:

1. Detailed Inspection and Calculation

  • Before any equipment arrives, our licensed inspectors perform a rigorous assessment of your property. We measure the cubic footage of your home with precision because the amount of fumigant used must be calculated exactly based on the volume of the structure, the target pest, and the current temperature. This ensures we use enough to be effective, but never more than necessary.

2. The "Seal-Up" (Tenting)

  • On the day of service, our crew arrives to prepare the exterior. We place heavy-duty, vinyl-coated tarps over the entire structure. These tarps are clamped together to form an airtight seal. Crucially, we use "sand snakes" (long, heavy sandbags) to weigh down the bottom of the tarps against the ground, creating a perfect seal that prevents the gas from escaping. This step effectively turns your home into a sealed bubble.

3. Fumigant Release and Monitoring

  • Once the home is secured and we have verified that all people, pets, and plants are vacated, we introduce the fumigant. We also introduce warning agents as a safety redundancy to ensure no one enters the structure. The gas circulates throughout the home, penetrating drywall, insulation, and wood beams to reach pests where they nest.

4. Aeration and Certification

  • After the required exposure time (usually 24 to 48 hours), we begin the aeration process. We open specific vents and use industrial fans to flush the fumigant out of the home. Finally, and most importantly, we use sensitive detection equipment to test the air quality in every room. We do not release the home back to you until our instruments confirm the air is 100% clear and safe for re-entry.

Structural Fumigation vs. Localized Treatments

One of the most common questions we get from Corona homeowners is: "Do I really need to tent? Can’t you just spot-treat the area?" It is a valid question, but the answer depends entirely on the severity of the problem. While spot treatments like orange oil or localized wood injections have their place, they have significant limitations compared to whole-structure fumigation.

🔹The Limitations of Spot Treatment: Localized treatments only kill the pests they touch. If a technician drills into a wall stud to treat a termite gallery but misses a secondary colony three feet away in the attic joists, the infestation will continue to grow. In Corona, where drywood termites can have multiple colonies scattered throughout a single house, spot treatment often becomes a game of whack-a-mole, resulting in recurring costs and continued damage.

🔹The Power of Whole-House Fumigation: Fumigation is non-discriminatory. It does not rely on the technician finding the bugs. Because gas expands to fill the available space, it reaches:

  • Behind heavy kitchen cabinets and appliances.
  • Inside vaulted ceilings and complex rooflines.
  • Between double-paneled walls.
  • Deep inside upholstered furniture (critical for bed bugs).

If your goal is total eradication with a single treatment, fumigation is the superior choice. It resets the clock on your home’s pest history.

Safety & Preparation: We Guide You Every Step

Safety is not just a priority at Allied Pest Control; it is an obsession. Structural fumigation is heavily regulated by the State of California and the Department of Pesticide Regulation. We adhere strictly to these laws to ensure the safety of your family, your neighbors, and our crew.

To ensure the process goes smoothly, we provide every client with a comprehensive Prep Checklist. While we handle the heavy lifting, successful fumigation in Corona requires a partnership. Here is what preparation typically looks like:

  • Food & Medicine: Any consumable items that are not in factory-sealed glass or metal containers (like canned goods) must be either removed from the home or double-bagged in special bags, which we provide.
  • Exterior Access: We will need access to the perimeter of your home. This means trimming back shrubs or vines that touch the house and unlocking side gates.
  • Watering the Soil: We ask homeowners to heavily water the soil around the foundation the day before. This helps protect your outdoor plants and creates a better seal for the tarps at ground level.
  • Key Arrangements: You will need to provide keys for all locked doors so our team can access every part of the home to open windows for ventilation during the aeration phase.

Once the process is done, you don’t need to wash your dishes or wipe down surfaces. The fumigant we use is a gas, not a spray or a dust. It leaves behind absolutely no residue. When we certify the house is safe to enter, it is truly clean.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fumigation


How long do I need to be out of my house? 

Typically, you will need to vacate the property for a couple of days, depending on the size of the application. For example, if we tent on a Monday morning, you are usually back in your home by Wednesday afternoon. We will provide a precise timeline before we begin.

Will the gas kill my plants? 

Indoor plants must be removed. Outdoor plants near the foundation are usually safe, provided you water them heavily the day before (which protects the roots) and we carefully pull them back from the tenting area. We take great care to avoid damaging your landscaping.

Does fumigation kill termite eggs? 

Yes. The fumigant dosage we use is calculated specifically to penetrate egg casings, ensuring that a new generation of pests doesn't hatch weeks after the treatment is finished.

Is it safe for my pets? 

Absolutely—as long as they are removed from the property during the treatment. Once we have tested the air and certified the home for re-entry, it is completely safe for pets, children, and those with respiratory sensitivities to return. There is no lingering chemical residue on floors or carpets.
