If you live in an area where this fungus may pose a problem you should
be able to get it from your fuel supplier.
It is so long ago I last saw the product I dont remember the name but
it is a fungicide and comes with elaborate mixing instructions- some
have a contraption to allow the application directly in the refuel hose.
I know this fungus lives on jet fuel, but not if it is the same that may
live in gasoline/petrol...
Hope it helps somehow,
Alex
