Propane Mosquito Foggers
Curious ... when you use one of those propane powered mosquito foggers is
the stuff they spray a toxin, or just a stinky smoke to drive them away? Wouldn't mind using one, but I don't want to kill everything the fog touches. thanks LeeAnne -- ------ If you're an insomniac, agnostic, dyslexic do you lay awake at night wondering if there is a dog? ----- |

Are you talking about those $300+ contraptions that attract and kill mosquitos? The ones I've seen use propane to generate carbon dioxide (and/or use octenol) to attract mosquitos to a central location where they are sucked to a chamber to die. There's no toxins involved (unless octenol happens to be one). - S |

correct. and they do work. the octenol is not a released toxin. Ingrid
