Q: Which products are labeled through thermal foggers for mosquito control? I have access to a DynaFog fogger but am struggling to find labeled products. Looking for some residual, but primarily quick knockdown.

A:

It is important to note the difference between application techniques for mosquito control before selecting which product to use. ULV fogging works by compressing the insecticide through a specially designed nozzle. This produces a very fine mist.  Applications made in this manner are great for quick knock-down but do not tend to offer any residual control. Misting from a backpack would allow you to use a product with more residual control.  This type of application will produce a larger droplet size than “fogging” and will wet surfaces where product is applied. There a many products labeled for each of these application methods.  Please contact your local Target Specialty Products’ Location for more information on these products.
