How do you kill the millions of termites that have infested every nook and cranny of the Cathedral? You fumigate. Spraying only helps with small localised infestations. When the entire building is infested you must fumigate. However we have to convince the local Pest Control board that we can do that safely.
Fumigation involves covering the entire building with a tent and filling the building with a termite killing gas. While this has been done locally before in the past on other buildings, we are getting some reluctance to allow this for the Cathedral. Please pray that the Pest Control Board will "sign off" on this project or else our restoration will be very seriously compromised.
Can we tent a building the size of the Cathedral? The King Kamehameha Hotel in Hawaii was tented and fumigated recently. As you can see it was a large mulitstory building and it was completely covered with a tent.
