Abstract：Methyl bromide plays an important role as a fumigant in the control of pests in imported timber. However, because it is an
ozone depleting substance that can harmful to the environment, a deadline for phasing out its use has been agreed under the
International Montreal Protocol. Research on alternatives to it have therefore become both timely and important. This paper

- suggests some possible solutions to these and directions for futher research and thinking in this field.
