For those of you who have a business line in the Food and Beverage sector or processing food raw materials, it is not uncommon to find bugs in these materials such as flour, grains, and other crops.
These tiny Pests can destroy flour, or other stored food, and thus need to be controlled. The rainy season is the best breeding ground for warehouse pests as they grow in humid conditions. Once they start reproducing, it is impossible to stop them.
Fumigation is needed in certain types of companies or industries, one of which is the Food and Beverage sector. The purpose of fumigation itself is to eliminate types of pests that can hinder the running of a business and even lose profits due to the presence of these pests.
Fumigation is the fastest way to control warehouse pests such as Tribolium, Lasioderma, booklice and other pests and is both time and cost effective. This pest extermination technique is also the most likely to control all phases of pest life and can reach areas that are difficult to reach by sprays, powders and aerosols. No doubt, Fumigation can eradicate pests more optimally.
Apart from fumigation, these pests can also be controlled with fumigant effects. Both have the same goal to eliminate pests, it's just different in terms of handling and materials to be used. Fumigation uses a fumigation technique with gaseous chemical substances or pesticides to exterminate insects, while the fumigant effect uses a liquid spraying technique.
Fumigation technique is in an airtight room and at a certain temperature and pressure. After the fumigation treatment, the room is usually not allowed to be used and will be closed tightly for a period of 72 hours or 4-5 days.
Fumigant effect technique is a technique of spraying pesticide liquid. After the room is treated with Fumigant Effect, usually the room cannot be used and will be closed tightly within a period of 1X24 hours.
