The application of insecticides is the predominant method by which man attempts to
control the size of insect populations. Due to environmental and economical
reasons, it is desirable to treat a given area with the least amount of insecticide that
can be made to be effective. The most efficient method is to break up the liquids into
aerosols and distribute these fine droplets over the target area. The small droplets
stay suspended for longer periods of time due to their size and are distributed more
evenly, remaining effective longer.
The term ULV is an abbreviation for Ultra-Low-Volume, the technology used to treat
areas with small amounts of chemical in an aerosol form. These chemicals are
usually in a more concentrated state than chemicals used in other methods of
application.
For best results, the Dyna-Fog ULV aerosol generator model 2990 should be
operated and maintained in compliance with this manual. Insecticides must be
applied in compliance with their label instructions.
