Fumigation

Fumigation is an effective targeted technique commonly used to control pests that attack stored goods and commodities. Fumigation itself is highly toxic to all living organisms, including humans.

Hence, fumigation services are highly controlled by local legislation and only registered pest control operators are allowed to conduct the treatment. Trained fumigators abide by strict procedures to ensure fumigation does not endanger the lives of your employees.

How Does Fumigation Work

Fumigation utilises hazardous chemicals or fumigants to control pests. Before fumigation can begin, the area of fumigation will need to be prepped and enclosed to ensure air tightness. Once completed, treatment can begin and fumigants are pumped into the space.

After sufficient concentration and time, any pests throughout the entire life cycle will be eradicated, protecting your goods and commodities.

Why The Need For Fumigation Services

Stringent import/export requirements and fumigation procedures have been implemented around the world. The Department of Agriculture Malaysia maintains a registrar of fumigation companies and all accredited fumigators to ensure all fumigation activities are monitored and compliant.

Companies are required to meet these stringent requirements before goods and commodities can leave the country, which can be extremely demanding. Hence, partnering with a registered and experienced fumigation company can help ease the process and protect the manufacturing, storage and transportation process from pest infestations.

  • Phospine Gas (Magnesium Phosphide and Aluminium Phosphide)

  • Methyl Bromide

    The preferred fumigant over others in quarantine fumigation due to its quick kill and deep penetration properties into commodities. This controlled fumigant, under Critical Use Exemption (CUE), is restricted to quarantine pre-shipment service.
