There are many ways to combat mosquitoes, but which is the best way for your home or business? Fogging systems disperse a chemical mist that kills mosquitoes, for a short period of time. While mosquito misting systems use a series of nozzles to release a mixture of things that smother the insects at certain points in time. So, when it comes to mosquito foggers vs sprayers, which is better for my home? A misting system or fogging the area? Let’s take a closer look.
Fogging
Does mosquito fogging work? Fogging is a quick-fix way to get your yard somewhat bug-free. It’s great if you are hosting a party or event in your yard but not for long-term use. Fogging sprays a chemical into the grass and surrounding areas making the mosquitos currently there die. This does not account for the mosquito larvae and other bugs.
Not to mention with Florida’s climate it does not work as well because things like the constant sunshine, rain, and even sprinklers can ruin it. All of those things can wipe away the fog and nothing is there to replace it.
When fogging is done it usually can last anywhere from 4-8 hours. An important thing to note is this method doesn’t completely rid of the mosquitos it just reduces the number.
The Mosquito Misting System
When you utilize a SWAT mosquito misting system you are spraying your yard at sunset and sunrise, as well as you have a remote control in which you can turn the system on at your leisure. The reason the system goes off on its own at those two times is because it is when mosquitos are at their peak.
The system sprays a mist of biodegradable, pet safe, pyrethrum which eliminates all the larvae and pupa. The mosquito misting system minimizes the mosquito population and as we say, they move out and we move in.
