fumigated
Pest-treated with vapor
Fumigated is the past tense of fumigate, meaning to expose an area to smoke or chemical vapors to kill pests, bacteria, or other unwanted organisms.
Buildings infested with termites or bedbugs are fumigated, as are ships and storage facilities: The apartment had to be fumigated after the roach infestation.
The process typically requires evacuation while toxic gases do their work.
