Fumigators that evaporate repellent from a liquid or special plates help control mosquitoes in an apartment or other premises. Once in the zone of toxin evaporation, the mosquito will not survive even a few minutes. It's all because of the poison, which penetrates through the spiracles on the insect's abdomen and paralyzes its central nervous system. The mosquito loses the ability to attack a person, fly and breathe.
In open spaces where people and animals suffer from mosquito bites, fumigators are not effective in combating them. For these purposes, powerful mosquito repellent units have been developed, which are placed on the site to protect against insects. During operation, the device evaporates carbon dioxide and an odorous substance reminiscent of human odor. Powerful trap attracts and kills mosquitoes.

Folk remedies: you need to know this
Treatment against ticks and mosquitoes using folk remedies is well-deservedly popular among rural residents. At minimal cost, it gives certain, albeit very unstable, results. And it can be considered an economical option for those who are not ready for more serious expenses. In this case, tomatoes can act as a means of repelling insects - bloodsuckers cannot stand their aroma and try to avoid areas where it is felt quite strongly. Fumigating the area with bunches of mint, basil or dry cloves helps scare bloodsuckers away from a person’s home. But this measure is valid for a very short time. As an alternative, you can use aroma lamps with an appropriate scent to help repel pests. Camphor and tobacco smoke affect them in a similar way - if desired, you can make an evaporator that operates in fumigator mode on the site.
What is the job of a fumigator?
Fumigation is the destruction of harmful insects by exposing them to toxic fumes. The word comes from the Latin verb “fumigare”, which means to fumigate or smoke. The chemical used to carry out this procedure is called a fumigant. It’s easy to guess that a fumigator is a device that allows you to spread substances that are poisonous to insects.
The fumigator device consists of the following key elements:
- a heating element;
- insecticide in the form of a plate, spiral, tablet or wick.
The principle of operation of the fumigator is to ensure the evaporation of a chemical substance that kills pests, but is safe for humans and pets. In addition to insecticides, non-toxic repellent substances are used in the fight against annoying insects. These are pyrethrins extracted from plants and synthesized pyrethroid components. Such substances help, through fumigation, to get rid of midges in the kitchen and scare away “bloodsuckers” from the children’s room.
Important! The answer to the question of how a fumigator works against mosquitoes directly depends on the substance used in the device. The insecticide works to destroy, while pyrethrin and pyrethroid simply repel.
