Application
Insecticide and rodenticide which is a respiratory, metabolic, and nerve poison. Evolves a non-flammable mixture of phosphine (the toxicant), ammonia and carbon dioxide.
It is used to kill small verminous mammals such as moles, rabbits, and rodents. The tablets or pellets typically also contain other chemicals which evolve ammonia which helps to reduce the potential for spontaneous ignition or explosion of the phosphine gas.
Fumigation control of insect and rodent pests in stored grains (wheat, rye, barley, rice, sorghum, maize, etc. ), seed grains, grain products (flour, noodles, semolina, etc. ), pulses (peas, beans, lentils, etc. ), tobacco, tapioca (roots and flour), oil seeds, expeller cake, nuts, nut kernels, dried fruit, coffee beans, cocoa beans, tea, etc.; And in empty warehouses, silos, packing materials, transport containers, etc.
