Full Length Research Paper Isolation of protease producing novel Bacillus cereus and detection of optimal conditions (2011, background): “But insect resistance to phosphine is a global issue now, and control failures have been reported in field situations in some countries (Bell, 2000; Chaudhry, 2000; Collins et al., 2005; Pimentel et al., 2007).”
Aerosols and contact insecticides as alternatives to methyl bromide in flour mills, food production facilities, and food warehouses (2012, unknown): “Because of issues with corrosion of metals and electrical equipment, phosphine has not been extensively used as a structural fumigant (Bell 2000), but new formulations with reduced corrosive effects may alleviate some of these concerns (Fields and White 2002).”
Seasonal variations in chemical composition and fumigant activity of five Eucalyptus essential oils against three moth pests of stored dates in Tunisia (2012, unknown): “However, the use of this fumigant is being restricted and phased-out because of its effects on health and the environment, particularly its effect on the ozone layer (Bell, 2000).”
