Hello World! Welcome Friends! Whether you live in a hot country where mosquitoes are abundant, or you enjoy vacationing in warm countries, it’s likely that you’ve been bitten by a mosquito at some point in your life. It’s hard to ignore the sore, itchy bump that mosquitoes leave behind after a blood meal.
Getting rid of mosquitoes from in and around your home is important for a number of reasons. It enables you to relax without batting a fly out of your way every few minutes and also protects you from mosquito-borne diseases.
Mosquito Fogging is one of the many methods that is used to get rid of pesky mosquitoes. In this article, we’re going to discuss what this technique is and how a mosquito fogging solution works in the home.
What is Mosquito Fogging?
Mosquito fogging is commonly used to deal with mosquito infestations, and it’s very similar to bed bug fogging or roach bombing. It comprises a machine that turns insecticide into a fine mist that it then pumps automatically into the surrounding area at regular intervals.
It uses a solution that comprises synthetic pyrethroids or natural pyrethrins that are obtained from chrysanthemums.
Mosquito fogging is highly effective and can be used on personal and commercial properties. Because they work automatically, they require very little intervention or maintenance to tackle mosquito infestations.
When a mosquito flies near the fogging machine, it will come into contact with the insecticide mist, which will kill them either immediately or within a few minutes. After a day or two of using your mosquito fogger, your property will be completely bug-free, and you can continue your normal day-to-day activities.
Types of Mosquito Foggers
Based on what we’ve already mentioned in this article, you might have already been convinced to purchase a fogger to keep mosquitoes away from your home. However, before you spend money on a fancy fogging machine, you’ll need to know which type of fogger is best for your needs.
All mosquito foggers are great at ridding your properties of pests, but each one has its advantages and also its dangers, so it’s important to do your research. The main types of foggers are thermal foggers and ULV foggers.
Thermal foggers turn insecticides into a mist using a heating element or smoke. They require diesel or paraffin oil to work and usually have an open flame, which can be a health and safety hazard in the home. For this reason, they’re better suited for outdoor use.
ULV (Ultra Low Volume) Foggers, also known as cold foggers, are more common than thermal foggers, especially in homes and commercial buildings. Instead of using an open flame and fuel to turn liquid insecticide into a mist, they use electricity, which makes them safer and more efficient. You can use them indoors or outdoors without putting your safety at risk.
Regardless of the type of fogger you choose for your home, you must always follow the health and safety protocols specified by the manufacturer to reduce the risk of accidents and injuries.
