question on C02 and use for pest control

[KING_JOHN_C]

Greetings
i have a question regarding C02 and its use for pest control in indoor gardens.
what is the concentration and duration it is used for to control common indoor pests and infestations?

What little I know about CO2 is this. I knew an inside grower who used it to make his buds bigger and for pest control too! So I guess you get two uses out of CO2!

For the plant use Co2 during the light cycle!
to nuke the pests! crank the Co2 PPM up during the DARK cycle.
I dont think you can over do it while in the dark cycle , as long as you return to the light cylce ppm before the lights come back on.
What kind of pest are we talking about ? ground hogs??? :D

What kind of pests are you trying to get rid of?
I have read in other forums that 5000ppm for 20 minutes will kill most anything. Though I think there are cheaper less wasteful ways. Maybe something like a dry cleaning bag "mini co2 tent".
