What to Bag Before Fumigation?

Not sure if an item needs to be bagged? Work through the questions below. If you still have questions, ask your Thrasher Pest Control rep.

01

First question

Is the item consumable by humans or pets?

Such as food, medicine, tobacco, vitamins, supplements, lozenges, spices, pet food, beverages, snacks, sauces, dairy, eggs, produce, wine, liquor, or anything else you can consume or swallow.

02

Second Question — if consumable

Is the item in a container made of glass, metal, or hard plastic?

Hard plastic is not easily squeezed. Note: metallic foil-lined containers such as sauce pouches, juice boxes, or blister packs are not metal containers. Metal containers are cans.

03

Third Question — if glass, metal, or hard plastic

Is the item in a container that has never been opened?

Is the original manufacturer's seal still intact? A screw top that has never been unscrewed. A can that has never been opened.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our home has been treated by Thrasher for over a year and we've had an excellent experience with them. They are consistent, thorough, and their technicians do a great job in communicating when they are on their way and giving an update when they leave. We have worked with Miguel the most and recently with Eddie as well. We highly recommend them for mosquitos, roaches and all the creepy crawlers!

Most recently Eddie A. has taken over our property and is doing a great job, providing a heads up before coming and a summary as to what was done when leaving. Great service!
