Silo & Shed Sealing
The success of any fumigation starts with the structural integrity and airtightness of the treatment area. At Max Pest Solutions, we believe a good fumigation can be made great with proper preparation—and that starts with expert sealing.
Our skilled technicians are experienced in sealing silos, grain sheds, and storage structures to ensure optimal gas retention. We also install tailored circulation systems to achieve even gas distribution, enhancing treatment effectiveness and compliance.
Using specialised equipment and high-quality sealing materials, we provide reliable, professional service that supports effective fumigation every time.
Our experienced team handles every step of the process:
- Clean & Prepare – We begin by ensuring the silo or shed is free of dust, debris, and old residues that may impact gas performance or sealing.
- Inspect & Assess – Our technicians check for structural integrity and identify areas requiring sealing or reinforcement.
- Seal & Secure – Using premium sealing materials and proven techniques, we seal all potential gas leakage points, including hatches, seams, aeration ducts, and access ports.
- Install Circulation Systems – To ensure even distribution of fumigant, we design and install suitable circulation systems such as fans and ducting.
- Fumigation Ready – Once sealed and fitted, your structure is ready for safe, effective fumigation—meeting compliance and achieving optimal results.
Properly sealed silos and sheds are not only more cost-efficient but also critical to fumigation success. By maintaining the correct gas concentration for the required exposure period, sealed structures ensure complete pest mortality—eliminating all life stages from eggs to adults. This prevents the survival of resistant insects, which can occur when fumigant levels drop too quickly due to leaks. Investing in airtight infrastructure reduces gas loss, minimises retreatment costs, and helps preserve the long-term effectiveness of fumigation across your operation and the wider industry.
