Dear Gel,
Is the product packaged ? what type of packaging that you have ?
The problem is if there is no pathway for gas to penetrate the product then beetle will be still alive ( product which contact directly with gas , turned to be toxic )
Immunity could be one of reasons , check this link http://legacy.crcpla...n-beetles.html
I think you have to change type of fumigation gas.
