Whether you need to leave your home after a termite treatment depends on the method used, and your pest control expert will provide specific instructions. For basic treatments like bait stations or traps, you typically don't need to vacate, but you should keep children and pets away from them. If the treatment involves indoor pesticide spraying, you will likely need to leave for three to five hours. For a full fumigation, which involves tenting the house, you must vacate the property for 24 to 72 hours (approximately three days). If you have any concerns, you can consult the National Pesticide Information Center for guidance.

Without treatment, pet dander can linger in the air for months—even if the pet is no longer in the home. These microscopic allergens often stick to furniture, bedding, and carpeting, causing long-term allergic reactions. Additionally, pet dander can enter a house on a person’s clothing or shoes—so, even if you don’t have pets at home, you could still have pet dander.
