MPI sought to evaluate methyl iodide as a replacement fumigant for methyl bromide, as eventually it may be needed for quarantine and pre-shipment use in New Zealand and elsewhere. Due to an absence of giant African snails (Achatina fulica) in New Zealand, a trial was run in Samoa where this introduced species is abundant. Permission was obtained from the Samoan Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries and the Samoan Port Authority to conduct a trial on the Apia wharf.
