We have a shed that is probably 8x10 feet. We have boxed and bagged up items and shoved it in the shed. I plan to cut the strips in half and tape to the top lid of totes.(Or could we stretch to a third cut?) Then also hang one up. My question is how full or empty do the totes have to be? Totes have mostly clothes in them. Bags are not tied off air tight. Do the bags need a strip in them too or can the hanging strip kill off the bugs in the bags? Thank you!
The manufacturer of the Nuvan ProStrips advises against cutting the strips. We recommend that you do not overly pack bags/containers/totes too full with belongings so that the vapors can work around the items effectively. The bags can use a strip but must be tied to enclose the strip for effectiveness. You can apply a strip one per 100-200 cubic feet of space for 2 weeks to 4 months depending on the targeted pest.
