All other goods

BMSB seasonal measures do not apply to goods not identified as ‘target high risk’ and ‘target risk’.

However, these goods may be subject to the measures if they are part of a consignment that

contains target high risk and target risk goods.

Treatment options

heat treatment

methyl bromide fumigation

sulfuryl fluoride fumigation

Treatment minimum standards

There are minimum standards for the application of BMSB treatments. Treatments applied for

biosecurity purposes are part of managing the risk of introducing exotic pests and diseases. These

treatments are only effective when conducted correctly.

It is important that treatment providers understand these requirements to effectively treat

consignments for import into Australia.

Fraudulent certificates

For treatments conducted in target risk countries, only BMSB treatment certificates from approved

list of treatment providers will be accepted.

For target consignments with a certificate from a treatment provider that is not approved, they will

either be:

exported, or

destroyed, in an approved manner
