Comparison of residual Methylisothiocyanate (MITC) in Australian and South American hardwood and softwood treated with a solid compressed Dazomet fumigant stick
2024 - IRG/WP 24-20712
The efficacy of compressed dazomet sticks with or without a copper-based accelerant for control of internal decay of both softwood and hardwood species was examined in multiple field trials. Effective levels of methylisothiocyanate (MITC), the fungitoxic decomposition product of dazomet were found in Australian spotted gum (Corymbia spp) and Guyanese Wallaba (Eperua falcata) as well as in southern...
