What type of treatment is typically utilized with fumigants for pest control?

Fumigants are specifically designed for thorough and comprehensive treatment of pests within an enclosed space. Unlike other pest control methods that may require repeated applications over time, fumigation involves enclosing an area, such as a building or storage facility, and introducing a gas or vapor that penetrates all surfaces and spaces. This single treatment is intended to kill pests in all life stages, including eggs, larvae, and adults, often achieving complete eradication in one go.

The nature of fumigation makes it effective and efficient for severe infestations or situations where pests are deeply ingrained within structures or materials, such as in the case of stored grain or wooden structures. Therefore, the strategy of employing a single comprehensive treatment with fumigants stands out as the most effective approach for pest control in these scenarios.
