Warehouse storage needs pest control. The best method is by using toxic gas. By using this method, you want to exterminate pests, especially in an enclosed space. We call this method fumigation.
To start, you have to cover the space in your warehouse storage. By doing this, it will prevent the gas to escape to the other areas. Also, this process is very important for public and environmental safety. On the contrary, if you do not cover tightly the treated area, it will make the gas has not enough affectivity.
Of course, using fumigation for exports, you must be 100% sure to choose the right fumigant. It is because you only have a little time. However, using fumigation for domestic warehouse storage means you still have enough time for shipping. You could leave the cover for about 8 to 10 days. Make sure you use phosphine fumigant for grain storage. For the cheapest one, you can choose tablet fumigant which is Fumiphos. And for the fastest fumigation, you can choose liquid phosphine fumigant which is Fumilikuid.
It is good to know that the process is only for professional fumigators. They will calculate the dose of the chemical carefully. It depends on the temperature, the target pests, and the size of the warehouse.
Once the process is complete, it is not over yet. The fumigators have to aerate the fumigant from the structure, by following the label instructions. Next, test it with sensitive gas monitoring equipment to confirm that it is safe to re-enter the area. This way, you will get a copy of the signed and stamped fumigation certificate.
