This is something you should bear in mind if you care about the other fauna in your yard. But they are generally safe for humans when applied in the quantities recommended to control mosquitoes. Permethrin is less likely to enter groundwater than malathion and may be slightly safer for the environment as a result.
Summary If you need an insecticide for your mosquito fogger — whether thermal, electric, or ULV — that will efficiently kill mosquitoes, ants, flies, fleas, and other insects, then this list of the greatest insecticides is just for you. Each and every one of these solutions is worthy of the title best insecticide, so if you need a fogger insecticide that is efficient, safe, and reliable then all of the ones listed in this article will fit your needs.
Frequently asked questions Can these insecticides be used in thermal and electrical foggers? Thermal foggers often use electricity to generate heat, so the same insecticides can usually be used in both. If you are unsure, read the label on your device to clarify which insecticides can be used.
Always read the label on your specific device to determine which types of insecticides can be used. These insecticides can be used to kill a wide range of insects and other bugs, including fleas, flies, cockroaches, lice and ticks. Many insecticides are also harmful to non-target insects, such as bees and butterflies. Fogging is not a permanent fix against outdoor mosquitoes.
These products often have peak effectiveness for around 72 hours, after which point new mosquitoes will hatch. Repeated fogging will help to break the breeding cycle, however, so after a while you can reduce the frequency of treatment. You can calculate how many bottles you will need by reading the product label to find out how many square feet it will cover.
You will also need to measure the size of your yard. Once you have these measurements, you can calculate how many bottles of product you will need to fully treat your garden. Insecticides are often harmful to other wildlife species. Most commercially available products have low toxicity for birds and mammals, but can be harmful to fish and other aquatic organisms. They are also often highly toxic to bees and other non-target insect species, such as butterflies. It is not recommended to eat fruits or berries that have been sprayed with insecticides.
Even products with low toxicity will probably impair the flavor of the fruit. What are things you should not run through a ULV fogger. I know a lot of people with broad mites, and like to use organic products like Nuke Em, Azamax, Neem, and various essential oils, with a wetting agent.
To know what type of solutions you can use with your ULV fogger, you should look at the label for your particular fogger and check if the fogger can be used with oil based solutions, water based solutions or both. And then you can find a suitable solution oil or water based one , that will not only help you get rid of your pest problem, but that will also be organic.
Best, Karen. Hi Louise, Experts say, that insecticides in the pyrethrin family allethrin, resmethrin, permethrin, cyfluthrin, esfenvalerate, bifenthrin, Cyfluthrin and such are the safest for horses.
Fallowed by Carbaryl based insecticides. And that you should make sure to avoid organophosphorus insecticide family insecticides containing malathion, parathion, diazinon, fenthion, dichlorvos, chlorpyrifos, ethion, trichlorfon.
However, some of the others on the list also could work. The key is to check the label of the insecticide you want to use and make sure that it says that it is safe to use around animals and that you know how to use the insecticide.
Although, in general, we usually tell people to avoid spraying the insecticide around water-bodies, and use products like mosquito dunks instead, because the dunks are specially designed to kill mosquito larvae in water but not to harm other wildlife. I am sorry if this sounds redundant but i have a black flag thermal fogger and i know their solution is oil based.
But i am looking for a solution i can use in a thermal fogger that will last longer than 6 hrs. I know you have stated some in your article but was unsure if when you used the term fogger that meant thermal fogger or all foggers? Hi Noah, No worries. Patricia, I am not sure, as I am not from this area.
Which one is more effective, aggressive and long lasting to treat mosquitoes, chiggers, and some ants? The Kontrol insecticide is a bit more potent and therefore will be more aggressive since it contains 4. I am ordering a propane fogger to fog the inside of my chicken coop.
The mosquitoes seem to like to hang out in there. The active ingredient for this one is Cedar oil, which is completely organic and natural. However, know that some say that cedar oil is bad for chickens since they have very sensitive respiratory systems and large concentrations of cedar oil can cause health problems.
While others say it is totally okay to use cedar oil in chicken coops as long as you properly ventilate the coop before letting your birds back in it.
Hi we I own a hand held thermol fogger and also a ulv grey hand held fogger with the 18 inch hose. I was wondering if one would work better than the other for mosquito control around our home.
Also need the best and most potent product to use in either one or for the fogger you recommend. We have woods on one side of our home and open grass field on the other. We also have window wells that I feel are harboring a lot of the mosquitoes. Thank you and we look forward for any help you can give us. Both foggers will are perfect for home use.
As for fogging solutions, ExciteR, Riptide and the Vet Kem Spray will be great for getting rid of mosquitoes for up to 4 weeks. While the Mediclean X will let you enjoy a mosquito-free area for months to come. However, the upside is that they are a bit more natural and not as harmful to the environment and the creatures living in it, especially fish and bees. In my opinion, foggers in general are not the best choice when dealing with termites.
Hello, Purchasing a Burgess fogger. My detached garage appears to be the mosquito rendezvous, where they plan their assaults on our family.
Nothing living in there except the mosquitos and some mice. Is there any unknown harm I would do by fogging inside the garage? I guess, if no one ever goes there and you protect yourself from inhaling the fumes during application, that risk might be eliminated at some extent.
However, we still highly suggest you not to try this! Still, one that can be used indoors is LD BP Fogging Concentrate , just make sure to follow the product label if you choose to use it. Which is another reason not to do this! Have been using this and feeling bad about bees! Southern States recommended this product.
Should I change to something else? I live in Virginia and am an inveterate gardener. Thank you for you researched advice. If you have bees visiting the treated area, Talstar would probably not be the best option since it truly is, as also stated on the label, highly toxic to them. We would suggest trying ExciteR Insecticide Concentrate. We live near a lake and have swarms of non biting midges all over the house for weeks. Best spray to treat these please? I own a Tomahawk mosquito fogger and mist blower.
We suggest trying Suspend SC insecticide. And David August one I would highly recommend wearing a respirator when applying the pesticide that should take care of any breathing issues later on.
We suggest Monterey Garden Insect Spray. It works well and is organic.
