Precision Biosecurity Services, in collaboration with Precision Pest Control, has been at the forefront of providing chemical-free heat treatments adhering to Australian Biosecurity standards since 2010.  

As pioneers in the industry, we were the first company in Australia to conduct Heat Treatments sanctioned by the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment (DAWE). Our operations have since expanded to cover major cities including Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, and even Singapore.

Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs (BMSB) pose a significant threat to our ecosystem and agricultural industries, causing extensive damage to crops and disrupting supply chains.  

Here’s why these pests are a cause for concern and how our innovative approach mitigates their impact: 

• Damage Caused by BMSB: Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs are notorious for wreaking havoc on a variety of crops, including fruits, vegetables, and nuts. Their piercing-sucking mouthparts can puncture plant tissues, leading to wilting, deformities, and reduced yields. This damage not only affects farmers but also has a cascading effect on consumers and the economy. 
• How BMSB Causes Damage: BMSB infestations occur when these pests enter cargo shipments, especially during the transportation of goods. Once inside, they can multiply rapidly, causing contamination and inflicting harm to the contents of containers. Their presence can result in delays, financial losses, and the need for extensive fumigation. 

Our fully licensed BMSB treatments are conducted under a Class 4.7 Secure Unpack Approved Arrangement.  

This innovative approach allows us to treat both the secure chamber and attached containers significantly faster than traditional methods such as methyl bromide treatments.  

The speed of our process, measured in hours rather than days, ensures that containers are swiftly released from quarantine hold.

Advantages of Our Proprietary Heat Treatment:

• Speed and Efficiency: Our proprietary heat treatment process surpasses the conventional methods, such as methyl bromide or sulfuryl fluoride treatments. The rapid turnaround time means that containers are back in circulation in a matter of hours, minimizing disruptions to supply chains. 
• Chemical-Free Approach: Unlike other treatments, our process is 100% chemical-free. This not only aligns with environmental sustainability goals but also ensures the safety of a broad range of goods. From furniture and household items to electronics and white goods, our heat treatment is versatile and effective. 
• Global Compliance: Precision Pest/Biosecurity Services are fully licensed by the Department of Agriculture, Water, and Environment for Class 12.3 BMSB Heat Treatments in Australia and overseas, including Singapore. Our commitment to international standards demonstrates our dedication to global biosecurity. 

 In addition to large scale thermal fogging and insecticide misting, we also carry out heat treatments to breakbulk cargo – typically for furniture, household items and even the occasional boat.
