Aung, L.H., Leesch, J.G., Jenner, J.F., & Grafton-Cardwell, E.E. 2001 Effects of carbonyl sulfide, methyl iodide, and sulfuryl fluoride on fruit phytotoxicity and insect mortality.. Annals of Applied Biology 139(1): 93-100.

Notes: Three potential chemical fumigants, carbonyl sulfide (COS), methyl iodide (MI) and sulfuryl fluoride (SF), were tested at selected dosages on lemons (cv. Eureka) against California red scale (Aonidiella aurantii), and MI and COS were tested on nectarines (cv. Summer Bright) against codling moth (Cydia pomonella). SF at _ 40 mg litre-1 gave 100% red scale mortality but resulted in commodity phytotoxicity. Lemons treated with the highest selected dose of 80 mg litre-1 COS gave only 87% kill of red scale, but failed to reach the desired probit 9 level.
