The Advantages of ProFume® Fumigant
ProFume® fumigant helps fumigators confidently solve a range of customer pest management needs. The active ingredient in ProFume, sulfuryl fluoride, is proven effective against all listed target pests and includes treatment of residential properties, commercial facilities, listed food commodities and export quarantine goods. It is labelled for both International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) 15 and ISPM 28 (treatment of debarked wood, wood pallets, packaging and international shipping crates).
Proven Effective
Sulfuryl fluoride, the active ingredient in ProFume, is proven to eliminate drywood termites, beetles and other difficult-to-control pests in residential applications. Its unique mode of action of ProFume makes it effective even against insect populations that have developed resistance to insecticides or phosphide fumigants.
Broad Spectrum
The proven active ingredient is effective on rodents at low-dose rates, and on all life stages of listed structure-infesting and household pests, and postharvest insect pests. Effective rates for target pests have been established through research.
Versatile
Label directions include residential, commercial and agricultural applications, such as:
• residential and multifamily homes
• hotels
• retail businesses
• commercial food and non-food sites (mills, grain elevators, warehouses, food production facilities, pet food and pasta plants, stationary transportation vehicles, fumigation chambers, fumigated stacks, and more)
Unprecedented Fumigation Planning Options
Exclusive Precision Fumigation™ tools and techniques allow fumigation planning based on job-specific factors that can include target pest(s), exposure time, temperature and half-loss time to ensure efficacy and meet customer goals.
Removes the Guesswork
The exclusive Fumiguide® program allows real-time monitoring of fumigations to ensure results. This can allow reaction to weather conditions during the fumigation, such as adding additional fumigant, if necessary, to ensure efficacy, or terminating the fumigation earlier than planned if efficacy has been achieved.
Rapid Penetration
ProFume has excellent penetration properties and rapidly distributes into all porous materials. Anywhere pests can hide, ProFume can reach — inside structures, household items and commodities. ProFume allows faster fumigations than are possible with phosphide fumigants and it penetrates more rapidly than methyl bromide.
Flexible Fumigation Duration and Rapid Aeration
Typical fumigation exposure times are 16 to 24 hours. A plan for a large fumigation may be 48 hours, while a chamber fumigation may be completed in 12 hours or less. ProFume quickly aerates upon ventilation, and it aerates more rapidly than methyl bromide.
Noncorrosive and Nonflammable
The active ingredient in ProFume is nonflammable, not combustive or explosive. Used according to label directions, ProFume has been shown to pose no risk of damage to buildings, equipment, electronic devices, furniture or artwork.
