Which chemicals are used to kill edible mushroom pathogens in mushroom sheds?

When growing edible mushrooms, the humid and stuffy conditions in the mushroom shed easily lead to disease, producing edible mushroom pathogens. How should these problems be prevented and nipped in the bud, and which chemicals are effective when sprayed?

When symptoms have just appeared, it is very necessary to use chemicals to prevent them from developing and spreading. In edible mushroom production, investing one share of money and effort in disease and pest prevention is much more effective than investing three shares of money and effort in control. So which chemicals can be used to eliminate them?

In actual production, the "high-temperature shed sealing" method can generally be used to kill pathogens in the mushroom shed. That is, after removing coverings such as straw mats outside the shed, spray chemicals such as kemeiling inside the shed, then seal the vents and so on, so that it is exposed to sunlight. Under the effect of high temperature, the chemical molecules move at high speed and are quickly released and decomposed under high-temperature conditions, rapidly killing pathogens and degrading to a certain extent, avoiding residues. For a generally newly built mushroom shed, spraying the chemical once can achieve the goal; for old sheds or areas with a high pathogen base, the chemical can be used again after 2 to 3 days, and after sealing for two days, it can be put into use.
