SELECTING A FORMULATION
(MODEL 2620)
Thermal fogging is an efficient and economical non-residual method of controlling insects.
But, the fog machine cannot do the job alone. The proper insecticide, properly formulated is
absolutely necessary. The machine will accept ineffective, poorly compounded solutions and the fog
will appear no different from an efficient and well-formulated compound, but the killing power will be
lacking. It requires insecticide to kill insects.
Improperly compounded formulations can promptly drop out of solution in the formulation
system and give poor results. Your distributor is usually qualified to make recommendations and to
furnish properly formulated insecticides; but, if you have any specific questions or doubts, feel free to
contact the factory.
CAUTION
Use only formulations prepared for thermal fogging and for the specific job to be
accomplished. This information should be found on the formulation label.
