"In cold climates there should be some means of heating the storage 
room to at least 70° F. during the fumigation. 
"Tf it is necessary to enter the storage room while it is under fumi- 
gation, the operator should wear a gas mask equipped with a fresh canister 
designed for protection against the particular gas that is being used and 
should remain in the room only long enough to obtain the garment needed. 
(Where heavy concentrations of fumigant are present or the operator mst 
stay in the room for any extended period, he should wear a self-contained 
oxygen mask.) 
Dosages 
"For the fumigation of the large storage sections a dosage of 1) 
pounds of the ethylene dichloride - carbon tetrachloride (3 = 1) mixture 
should be used per 1,000 cubic feet of space, with a week-end exposure. 
"For the preliminary fumigation of fur garments in small vaults, the 
same dosage can be used, although an exposure of 12 to 2) hours is 
sufficient." 
Many other fumigants are available that are suitable for use in both 
vaults and storage rooms. The operator should be guided by the recommenda- 
tions of the manufacturer with regard to proper dosages to use and the 
suitability of the product for fumigating furs.
