Claim:
A garment container comprising: a plurality of panels, at least one of said plurality of panels being a vertical side panel having a vertical side cut-out opening formed therein by cutting out a portion of at least one of said vertical side panel to form at least one cut-out opening, said plurality of panels being capable of containing at least one article of clothing therebetween; at least one self-contained closeable pocket composed of a transparent gas impermeable material for closing said cut-out opening of said vertical side panel, said self-contained closeable pocket configured to hold a chemical composition in an interior thereof and having a top edge that coincides with a top edge of said vertical panel and a bottom edge that coincides with a bottom edge of said vertical panel; and means for providing access into the interior of the pocket, said means being provided adjacent to and along a top edge of said self-contained closeable pocket to facilitate the complete filling of said pocket with a fumigant so that more time elapses before replenishing said pocket; wherein said at least one self-contained closeable pocket has a transparent gas-impermeable front surface and a transparent gas-impermeable back surface, said back surface being perforated with vents disposed at said back surface to which a solid source for said fumigant gravitates to allow vapor from the chemical composition to pass therethrough to treat the garment without a gravitation of small residue particles through said vents.
