Fumigation
Our UK Fumigation Services:
Benefits of Fumigation:
Our UK fumigation services provide Sulfuryl Fluoride (Profume) or metallic phosphides to produce a fumigant gas within an air tight space.
The gas penetrates deep into commodities and materials and targets the pest species inside.
Fumigation is very effective in targeting Stored Product insects (SPIs) such as beetles, weevils, mites and moths. SPIs can infest grain and bulk commodities such as grain, cereals, nuts, cocoa and animal feed – along with other raw materials used within food manufacture.
All life stages of the pests are effected and after ventilation no toxic residues are left on goods.
Sulfuryl Fluoride (Profume) is also used to treat wood boring insects and The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug.
It is approved by the Australian and New Zealand Government Quarantine service for treatment of BMSB.
We are based centrally in the North West of England and can provide our fumigation services anywhere within the UK.
We can treat buildings, flour mills, food factories and warehouses for stored product insects, moths and wood boring insects. With a exposure period of just 24hrs.
We have experience at working on Ports, Rail freight terminals, grain stores, silos and warehousing across the UK. So whatever the situation and extent of problem call us for a quote.
Fully Industry certified and with 25 years’ experience we can provide services to virtually all sectors.
Shipping Containers
& BMSB
We provide treatments for The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug at clients locations throughout the UK.
Shipping Containers are used to carry raw materials and finished goods from export to importing countries. They can be fumigated before export or on arrival at destination keeping logistic costs and timing reduced.
Harmful gases as well as fumigants can build up during transit and it is imperative that gas testing and clearance is undertaken before goods are unloaded. We offer fumigation, gas testing and clearance at Ports, Rail terminals and warehousing.
Commodities Under Sheet
Raw materials and finished goods can be effected by stored product or moth infestations whilst in storage.
Boxed, bagged and palletised commodities can be treated if adequate space and a risk area can be provided at clients premises.
Our UK fumigation services can arrange to attend site and fumigate the effected goods under gas proof sheets.
Grain Stores & Silos
Ideal breading grounds for stored product insects as large amounts of raw food materials are stored for prolonged periods of time.
A small number of insects can multiply very quickly and devastate the product.
Once an active infestation takes hold the only real control is fumigation.
Pre – harvest treatment of grain stores and regular inspections will greatly help prevent large scale infestations of stored bulk grains.
Chambers
Food manufactures have invested in purpose built Fumigation Chambers which are used to put infested and high risk products into for safe and effective treatment before entering the manufacturing facility.
If you have chambers at your site or are looking to invest in this facility we can provide consultation prior to build and offer regular service treatments at your site.
Building Fumigation
We are licensed to use Sulfuryl Fluoride which is an approved fumigant in the UK for treating structures including Flour Mills, Food Factories and warehousing.
Sulfuryl Fluoride is approved for use against Stored Product Insects, Moth and Wood Boring insects.
We use precision fumigation monitoring techniques to to ensure the correct fumigant levels are achieved for the target pest.
