Application Rates and Usage

• Stored Grain & Warehouses: Use 1-3 tablets per ton of stored grains or sealed storage environments to control insects and rodents.
• Outdoor Gopher Control: Insert 1-2 tablets per burrow for effective control of gophers and moles in agricultural fields and gardens.
• Buildings: For bed bug and cockroach infestations, use 1-2 tablets per cubic meter, ensuring proper sealing of the area for maximum gas exposure.

Always refer to the product label for detailed application instructions and safety precautions based on specific pest control needs.

Packaging Options

• Bulk Packaging: Available in 500g cans, 25kg drums, and 1kg bottles for large-scale fumigation applications.
• Small Packaging: Available in smaller 100g, 250g, and 500g cans for easier handling and use in residential and small-scale operations.

Tablet Shapes of Aluminum Phosphide

Aluminum phosphide tablets are available in various shapes to suit different fumigation needs. These include:

• Flat Tablets: Commonly used due to their ease of handling and even distribution in fumigation.
• Round Tablets: Designed for consistent gas release over time.
• Pellet Tablets: Smaller and more uniform, ideal for controlled fumigation environments.

Common Bottle Types

Aluminum phosphide tablets are typically packaged in secure, moisture-proof bottles to prevent accidental exposure to moisture, which could trigger the release of toxic phosphine gas. The most commonly used bottle types include:

• Plastic Bottles: Sealed with airtight lids, often with an inner aluminum seal for added protection.
• Aluminum Tubes: Often used for smaller quantities, these tubes feature a tightly sealed cap with an aluminum core to ensure safety.
• Metal Cans: Used for larger quantities, often with colorful laminated labels, and designed to withstand rough handling during transport.

Storage and Transportation:

1. Storage Conditions:
   Store in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated area, protected from moisture and away from fire or heat sources. Keep out of reach of children and ensure it is securely locked.
2. Transport Restrictions:
   Do not mix with acids or strong oxidants. Avoid exposure to sunlight, and never store or transport with food, beverages, grains, or feed.
3. Prohibited Areas:
   Strictly prohibited from being stored or used in living areas due to its high toxicity and flammability.

Usage Precautions:

1. Special Restrictions and Requirements:
   Aluminum phosphide releases flammable and highly toxic phosphine gas when exposed to moisture. Avoid inhalation and ensure fumigation sites are at least 20 meters away from human and animal living areas. All storage and fumigation sites must be absolutely sealed.
2. Protective Equipment:
   Personnel applying the pesticide must wear gas masks and gloves. It is strictly prohibited to drink alcohol, eat, or smoke before and after pesticide application. Smoking and open flames are strictly prohibited in the application area. After applying, thoroughly wash hands and face.
3. Handling Precautions:
   When opening the container outdoors, do not point the opening towards your face. Open the lid gently and wait for the gas to release before fully opening the container. If there is a fire or explosion, slightly shake the container, and it should self-extinguish. Use dry sand or a dry powder fire extinguisher to put out any fires—never use water.
4. Food Safety:
   Food and processed grains must not come into direct contact with the chemical. After fumigation, grains and oils must be aired out for at least 10 days before consumption.
5. Metal Corrosion:
   Phosphine gas is corrosive to metals like gold, silver, and copper.
6. Disposal of Residues:
   After fumigation, deeply bury any residues from the fumigation process.
