On the basis of type, the demand for phosphine fumigants of stored products in pest control over the last decades is due to its relatively low cost, ease of application in several different storage structures, effectiveness against major pesticides, and acceptance in all markets. Fumigants’ commercial formulations are available in solid tablets, sachets, blankets, and cylindered gas. After fumigation, phosphine also breaks down, making its atmosphere safe than methyl bromide. It has the lowest density, similar to air, so phosphine fumigants disperse faster.
