Fumigation

World food production still suffers substantial losses due to pests during post-harvest storage and commodity transport. An effective, reliable pest control program is needed to control and reduce damage inflicted by insect pests during trade, logistics and warehousing of agricultural commodities, food and feed production and processing.

Also, increasing trade development implies the movement of wooden items throughout the globe. This can pose a threat to biotopes around the world as wood is a suitable vector for some major pests.
