Formalin is an aqueous solution of formaldehyde, which releases a pungent gas that has high toxic effects. 37% by mass and 40% by volume form of formaldehyde along with additional stabilizers like methyl alcohol (10-12%).
Disadvantages :
- Noted carcinogenic properties
- Requires flushing as the soil beds flourish with toxic residues
- Stable only over a narrow pH range
- Pungent odour forming, causing severe lung problems
- Causes phytotoxicity
Advantages of Quasil(Envirofriendly) :
- This silver H2 O2 combination is ecofriendly and nontoxic in nature
- Takes 12 hours between soil fumigation and plantation, unlike formalin which takes 3 weeks minimum
- Very effective on nematodes
- No flushing required
- Silver has an anti-senescence property, and prevents the ageing of fruits
