Alternatives to Methyl Bromide in Italian Food Industries Results of Two-year Practical Applications
In 2005-2006, the Italian Ministry of Environment gave a grant to the Institute of Entomology of the University of Milan for a research project. The goal was to find out several alternatives to the use of methyl bromide for the control of pests in food industries. The MB alternatives tested in Italy were fumigation with sulfuryl fluoride, heat treatments, automatic systems for the distribution of pyrethrins with the ULV method and integrated pest management. Different food industries participated in the project and the results were reported in a special meeting in Italy. The general conclusion is that it is completely possible to replace methyl bromide to control pests. Every industry can choose the most appropriate alternative to methyl bromide.
