Aqua & Arthropods Pest Control (P) Ltd. was founded by Mr.S.Viswanathan and Mr.G.Gopalakrishnan in 1983 at Tuticorin. The company offered anti termite treatment and general pest control in the beginning.
Initially, the clients were mainly in Tuticorin. In a short time, realizing the potential of the business, a branch was opened in Chennai.
Fumigation services developed more with the growth of Tuticorin Port Trust. Strong focus on customer service combined with aggressive sales efforts contributed to phenomenal growth and an ever-increasing list of clientele. Our company prospered and its services were recognized by fumigation service seekers like shipping agents, and exporters of food commodities and agricultural produce.
With the founders expertise and skill, good fumigation practices were put in place for both Aluminium Phosphide as well as Methyl Bromide. This gave us a reputation for highly reliable and failure-free fumigation. It also resulted in Aqua and Arthropods being the most sought-after fumigator for ship-holds and the entire warehouses. A branch was opened in Cochin to cater to the growing exports from Kerala.
In 2005, it became mandatory for wooden packaging material (WPM) to be fumigated prior to export under ISPM 15. This led to an exponential increase in the demand for Methyl Bromide fumigation.
We are among the first to be accredited under the new NSPM (National Standard for Phytosanitary Measures) for Methyl Bromide.

EnquireMethyl Bromide and Phosphine are the two most common fumigants used for treating raw commodities, processed food and wooden packaging material. In hospital settings and pharmaceutical manufacturing, ethylene oxide fumigation is used for sterilization.
Methyl Bromide (MBr) is a liquid under pressure that turns into a gas when released after heating. It is stored in cylinders or cans. MBr is highly penetrative, can kill insect eggs, highly toxic to a broad spectrum of insects and similar pests. Aluminium Phosphide (ALP) when allowed to react with atmospheric water vapour, produces phosphine gas. It is available in tablet form. ALP exposure periods are higher and is not lethal to all insect eggs.
The Plant Protection Adviser to Government of India issues notifications from time to time relating to the fumigant and dosage to be used for different commodities. Fumigation of Wooden Packaging (including dunnage) is mandated under the International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) -15, which recommends using Methyl Bromide only.
No. Methyl bromide is very effective against insect pests, but is not lethal to commonly found fungal species. If you wish so, Aqua & Arthropods Pest Control can perform anti-fungal treatment for your wooden packaging material separately.
Aqua & Arthropods have been in this business for more than 36 years. You can trust us to know a lot about fumigation. Our highly skilled professionals are trained to deliver the highest quality fumigations possible. Aqua & Arthropods Pest Control are accredited to undertake fumigation for all countries, including Australia.

They not only got rid of the pests completely but also took preventive measures to ensure they wouldn't return. I highly recommend their services for anyone facing pest issues.
We've had a problem with food spoiling Pests, and we were really grossed out. But Aqua Arthropods Fumigation Service was able to get rid of them in no time. They were very friendly and professional, and they made sure that our storage was clean and free of pests.
We've recently had our storage fumigated by Aqua & Arthropods, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Their team was efficient, knowledgeable, and respectful of my property. They explained the entire process to me and addressed all my concerns. Since the fumigation, I haven't seen a single pest.
We've had a severe termite infestation in our Storage, and I called in Aqua & Arthropods for assistance. Their team was incredibly responsive and arrived at our property promptly.
