Gypsophila cut flowers were fumigated with methyl bromide against Liriomyza trifolii . Complete control was obtained at a dose of 40 g/m 3 methyl bromide, for 3 h at 15–18°C. To get satisfactory results without injuring the flowers they had to be conditioned at the above temperature for 6 h prior to fumigation.
