Fumigation Open Access Journals

Fumigation is one among the foremost effective techniques of pest control. In fumigation, an affected area is totally crammed with fumigants (gaseous pesticides) to asphyxiate the pests. Although fumigation techniques are conventionally used for agrarian applications, they're now getting used as a pest control measure in buildings, which is additionally called structural fumigation. it's aptly called structural fumigation because this method affects the ‘structure’, implying that the pests inhabiting the structure are suffocated to death. These pests typically include woodborers and drywood termites.

 

Fumigants are gaseous pesticides that control pests in agricultural fields, structures like buildings and apartments, storage houses and various other sites. Fumigants are generally biocides—chemicals which will kill/injure living organisms with which they are available in touch .  VOCs are dangerous compounds infamous for his or her contribution within the creation of smog. Sulfuryl fluoride, formaldehyde, bromide , chloropicrin and iodoform are a number of the foremost popular samples of fumigants. Let’s now take a glance at a number of the important chemical properties of fumigants and the way they're relevant when choosing the proper fumigant.
