Fogger

Fogger

A fogger is any device that creates a fog, typically containing an insecticide for killing insects and other bugs. The number of foggers needed for pest control depends on the size of the space to be treated, as stated for safety reasons on the instructions supplied with the devices. The fog may contain flammable gases, leading to a danger of explosion if a fogger is used in a building with a pilot light or other naked flame. [cite web
