Import Tips
• Confirm the product is registered for use in Canada under the Pest Control Products Act, as methyl bromide is a restricted-use pesticide
• Provide the CBSA with the full formulation details, including chloropicrin content, to avoid misclassification
• Be prepared for potential quarantine and environmental inspections due to the ozone-depleting nature of methyl bromide
