Fumigation might sound like a rather ominous name for something that is employed to kill pests but it actually is not a method of exterminating pests. Fumigation simply is a way to eliminate harmful micro-organisms which completely fill an infected area with lethal gaseous toxins-or fumigants'-to kill or remove the pests that are in the area. These deadly toxins are used most often to get rid of rodents as well as other small animals that are susceptible to deadly diseases. Fumigation can also be employed to eliminate termites from a home or commercial establishment.
