Dry and wet fog
Dryness or wetness of the fog is controlled by the rate of pumping. Pumping at the
recommended rate of once every 3 to 4 seconds will produce the most eff ective fog. The
dryness of the fog can be determined by passing a piece of dry cardboard through the fog
about 18 inches from the end of the nozzle. If the cardboard appears wet you are pumping
too fast. Fog should appear white in color. If fog appears brown or yellow in color you are
pumping too slow.
Dry fog is recommended.
This increases the penetrating ability of the insecticide and allows
the fog to cover a larger area. Wet fog contains particles of insecticide that may not have been
completely vaporized.
The oily residue left by wet fog may be harmful to certain species
of fl owers, growing plants, outdoor carpeting, etc.
Use Only Black Flag® Fogging Insecticide Formula 2
1. The fogger is a dispenser of insecticides. Results obtained are directly related to the
insecticide used. In order to produce a fog, the insecticide must have the proper oil base.
Black Flag® Fogging Insecticide Formula 2 has the proper oil base. Do not use emulsifi able
concentrate or other materials designed to be mixed with water.
2. USE ONLY BLACK FLAG® FOGGING INSECTICIDE FORMULA 2. Your Burgess® Insect Fogger is
designed to be used with Black Flag® Fogging Insecticide Formula 2. The use of other
insecticides or chemicals may damage your fogger and could result in unsafe conditions.
3. The use of other insecticides such as Dibrom or Vapona will clog the vapor coil of your fogger,
make it inoperable and void the warranty.
