TM 43-0156
(1) Apply diazinon dust 2 percent, 6840-00-753-5038, unit of issue 25 pound pall, to the interior of each
container, at the rate of 4 pounds per 1,000 square feet; take precautions not to exceed this amount. Evenly
apply the insecticide to the floor and the surface of the containers. Application directed toward the walls and
upper corners will help reduce the possibility of quarantinable pest insects being transported. Dust can be
applied with either a manually-operated, rotary fan duster, 3740-00-132-5935, or a manually-operated, tubular
pump duster, 3740-00-132-5936. The latter is more satisfactory for smaller boxes.
(2) Use rodenticide, bait block diphacinona-paraffin, 8 ounce, 6840-00-0894664, unit of issue 20-pound
box, in containers. Place one block near the center of each container or applicable container. The red tape
attached to the block will be brought to the outside of the container and will be clearly visible when the
container is closed. In a large container, van, etc., use one block for each 5 linear feet, evenly spaced
throughout the length of the container. The block nearest the opening will have its red tape brought to the
outside so it is clearly visible.
NOTE
In the event vans or larger containers are loaded with smaller
containers that have already been treated, three bait blocks will
be used, evenly spaced throughout the length of the container.
The block nearest the door will have its red tape brought to the
outside so it will be clearly visible.
g. All closed containers exceeding 10 cubic feet that will be shipped separately will be treated as follows:
(1) Attach insecticide dichlorvos strips, 6840-00-142-9438, 2-inch, unit of issue 144 per case, to the
interior of each closed container at the rate of five linear strips per shipping container. Use equal or lesser
amounts for smaller containers. Attach strips to the ceiling of shipping containers and to areas offering the
greatest amount of open space in other containers.
(2) Use rodenticide bait blocks as indicated in f(2) above.
h.
If these instructions are at variance with the Command regulations regarding shipment of nontactical
generators, consult the Command Entomologist. Obtain technical assistance and advice regarding these
instructions from the Command Entomologist.
i.  Personnel involved in applying the dust strips and bait blocks will wear gloves, protective clothing, and
respirators as recommended by the Post Surgeon or Safety Officer
