Advantage® Household Fogger FAQs
How do I use the Advantage Household Fogger for fleas in my home?
One canister of fogger will treat a room up to 16 ft x 16 ft with an 8 ft ceiling or 2,000 cubic ft of unobstructed space. However, do not use more than one fogger per room and do not use in small, enclosed spaces such as closets, cabinets, or under counters or tables. Avoid using Advantage Household Fogger in a room 5 x 5 ft or smaller; instead, allow fog to enter from other rooms. See below for flea fogger directions.
Before You Fog:
- Remove or cover exposed food and drinking water before any application.
- Remove or cover dishes, utensils, food processing equipment and food preparation surfaces, or wash them before use.
- Be sure to remove pets and birds, as well as cover and turn off fish aquariums before activating canister.
- Shut off all exhaust fans and close all windows, doors and ventilators.
- Turn off ALL ignition sources such as pilot lights (shut off gas valves), other open flames or running electrical appliances that cycle off and on (e.g.,. refrigerators, thermostats, etc.)
- Cover wood floors and wood furniture in the immediate area around fogger with newspapers or a dropcloth.
- Open cabinets, cupboards, drawers, closets and doors in areas to be treated.
- Place a chair, small table or stand in the center of the room to be treated, and then cover with newspaper.
- Fill out and place a hang-tag on the door to the treated area to alert anyone with access to the treated area not to enter for two (2) hours.
To Start Fogging:
- Shake well before use and keep container upright.
- The canister sprays straight up, so it’s important to point the canister away from your face and eyes when releasing.
- To lock valve in position for automatic discharge, press the valve button down firmly until it snaps into place.
- Once the canister has been activated, place the canister on the chair, small table or stand (that is covered by newspaper) in the center of the room to be treated.
- For best results, treat all areas infested with fleas or other pests.
- Do not remain in the treated area. Vacate the treated house, individual apartment unit or other structure immediately.
- Do not re-enter for two (2) hours.
After Fogging:
- Wait two (2) hours after application, and then open windows, vents and doors for two (2) hours. If an odor is still detectable, additional ventilation is required.
- For more effective control of storage pests and cockroaches, open all cupboard doors and drawers for better penetration of fog.
- Remove all infested foodstuffs and dispose of it in outdoor trash.
- For flea and tick control, thoroughly vacuum all carpeting, upholstered furniture, along baseboards, under furniture and in closets. Put vacuum bag into a sack and dispose of it in outdoor trash.
Warning: Use of a fogger in an enclosed space may cause the product to explode, resulting in injury to people or damage to property. Be sure to thoroughly read product label directions and precautionary statements before use.
How do flea bombs and foggers work?
