Container fumigation controls any type of pest through an efficient, safe and dry disinfection
process, which is usually done by gas. The most commonly used gases in the fumigation process
are methyl bromide and phosphine. Although both maintain the same level of effectiveness; methyl bromide is more frequently used in containers. In order to receive the fumigant, the container must have its structures in good condition. The fumigation site must be isolated within a radius of 5 meters, and a sticker containing basic information such as date and time of start and end of treatment should be attached to the container’s door
