Termite fumigation cost by method, rows apart.

Method readings, priced apart by frame
| Method row, Frame A | Per linear foot | Per sq ft |
|---|---|---|
| Chemical fumigation | $5-$20 | $1-$4 |
| Heat tenting | $10 | $1-$3 |
Frame B prints no per-linear-foot tenting line as printed: its linear-foot lines belong to the tentless lanes on the standing treatment hub -- bait and liquid soil lines -- and stand named apart there, never as tenting rows here. A method row is never repriced as a size row: the chemical fumigation line and the heat tenting line each keep their own unit, per linear foot against per square foot apart inside Frame A, whole-home bands apart inside Frame B.
Method bands: Frame B
| Method row, Frame B | Whole-home reading | Frame B note |
|---|---|---|
| Gas fumigation | $2,000-$8,000 | tented band as printed |
| Heat treatment | $2,000-$6,000 | tented band as printed |
| Rate line, fumigation / tenting | $1-$4 per sq ft | rate line as printed |
Frame B bands behind the rows: gas fumigation at $2,000-$8,000 against heat treatment at $2,000-$6,000, whole-home readings apart.
Method against method, frame against frame
A chemical fumigation row read per linear foot at $5-$20 against a heat tenting row at $10 per linear foot, priced apart by method and by unit. The frames price the same job apart -- an average at $3,000 with most jobs at $2,000-$5,000 in Frame A against a whole-home band at $2,000-$8,000 with no average printed in Frame B, an inspection line at $100-$300 against $0-$250, a heat line read per unit in Frame A against a whole-home heat band at $2,000-$6,000 in Frame B -- a frame difference, never averaged, never blended.
The unit split stands on every row: a per-linear-foot reading counts the perimeter line, a per-square-foot reading counts the interior line, and a whole-home band counts the single job whole -- three readings of two methods, printed apart inside their frames and never converted into one another on this guide.
The neighbours named apart
Named apart, never a row here: termite treatment, the liquid, bait, and spot methods on the standing treatment hub; termite inspection, the inspection visit; the bed-bug cluster, a bed-bug job; the pest-control service page, general pest visits; and termite damage repair, the repair job after a treatment -- this cluster prices the whole-structure tenting job alone.

Frequently asked questions
What does termite fumigation cost by method, as reported?
Frame A prints chemical fumigation at $5 to $20 per linear foot and $1 to $4 per square foot, and heat tenting at $10 per linear foot and $1 to $3 per square foot. Frame B prints gas fumigation at $2,000 to $8,000 and heat treatment at $2,000 to $6,000 as whole-home bands, each apart.
What does chemical fumigation print at, as reported?
Frame A prints both unit readings: $5 to $20 per linear foot of perimeter and $1 to $4 per square foot of interior, apart. Frame B prints a gas fumigation whole-home band at $2,000 to $8,000, named apart.
What does heat tenting print at, as reported?
Frame A prints heat at $10 per linear foot and $1 to $3 per square foot. Frame B prints a heat treatment whole-home band at $2,000 to $6,000 -- a frame difference in units, never converted into one another.
What does the per-linear-foot line print at, as reported?
Frame A prints fumigation at $5 to $20 per linear foot and heat at $10 per linear foot. Frame B prints no per-linear-foot tenting line as printed; its linear-foot lines sit in the tentless lanes on the standing treatment hub, named apart.
Is a bait system priced on this guide?
No. Bait and liquid soil lines belong to termite treatment on the standing treatment hub, named apart and never a tenting method row here; termite inspection, the bed-bug cluster, the pest-control service page, and termite damage repair stand in their own lanes. This guide prices tenting by method.
