Foggers for pest control

I ordered a couple 6 head commercial pond foggers for humidity control. My question is would they work if I put a pesticide in in with the fogger and let it run over night to kill everything in sight. It seems like the most efficient way to apply anything foliar.

I asked about this a couple weeks ago and got no reply. Seems nobody knows anything about it.

More specifically, I was wondering whether I should get an ultrasonic style nutrimist fogger, or a centrifugal style like the hydrofogger for fumigating with pyrethrins.

I ended up buying a hydrofogger cause I could get it locally. Tried it out with some bug-B-gone and ambush, both pyrethrin products. Worked brilliantly. Turned the whole room into a cloud and killed every spidermite in a space that was very difficult to spray manually. Also very much not a fun thing to do, wearing a rubber rainsuit and full face mask for an hour or more is really lame.

I couldn't be happier. Wish I did it earlier, I'll never spray again.

Getting rid of pests is essential to be healthy and keep your home safe but recently I too saw symptoms of bedbugs in basement and on living room carpets and now don’t want to hire expensive pest controllers. If anyone knows about simple DIY methods to kill bed bugs then please let me know.

I was once told by a retired pest control applicator that anyone not using heat treatment is taking you for a ride.

While I have never had the joy of bedbugs to try the method, he was an honest person.
