Aluminum Phosphide Tablets | Powerful Fumigant Insecticide for Pest Control

Aluminum Phosphide (AlP) tablets are highly effective fumigant insecticides widely used to control pests such as insects, rodents, gophers, moles, and bed bugs in stored grain, warehouses, buildings, shipping containers, and agricultural fields. Upon exposure to moisture, AlP releases phosphine gas (PH₃) — a potent respiratory toxin — which penetrates deeply to eliminate pests in confined or sealed environments.
