Fumigants provide excellent management & eradication of a variety of insects, nematodes, and other animals or plants that cause serious harm to stored foodstuffs, homes and seeds. Here, you will be able to search and buy a comprehensive range of fumigants from a number of Zambian businesses whose mission is to help you control and eliminate unwanted pests.
Common fumigants used to treat stored products or nursery stock include hydrogen cyanide, naphthalene, nicotine, and methyl bromide. Soil fumigants commonly used as nematicides are methyl bromide, dichloropropane, propylene oxide, dibromochloropropane, organophosphate insecticides, and chloropicrin.
A fumigant is used to apply smoke, vapor, or gas to especially for the purpose of disinfecting or of destroying pests.
Soil fumigants are pesticides that, when applied to soil, form a gas to control pests that live in the soil and can disrupt plant growth and crop production.
Inhalation is the most dangerous and common route of exposure to fumigants. Most are highly toxic so breathing even small amounts can cause serious illness or death. Exposure also can occur thorough your eyes, mouth, or skin.
Currently, methyl bromide and phosphine are the most commonly used fumigants for the treatment of stored grain and similar commodities.
Sulfuryl fluoride is a gas used to fumigate closed structures and their contents for dry wood and Formosan termites, wood infesting beetles, bedbugs, carpet beetles, clothes moths, cockroaches, and rodents. Sulfuryl fluoride is an odourless, colourless gas.
Fumigation is a method of using a lethal gas to exterminate pests within an enclosed space. There are two fumigation methods used. One is to seal the structure with plastic, tape, or other materials, and the other is to enclose the structure in a tent of vinyl-coated nylon tarpaulins.
Headache, concentration and memory disorders, dizziness and nausea, skin irritation, respiratory distress, and muscle cramps - isolated or in various combinations - may be the result of acute or chronic intoxication by fumigants.
