Pest foggers, or bug bombs as they are commonly called, are available in a formula that targets only one insect like roaches or fleas or in a broad-spectrum formula that kills many different household pests at once. Foggers release a concentration that seeps into cracks and crevices to provide protection from bugs hiding in the woodwork and trim of your home. All pest foggers work in the same manner, and the same precautions apply to each when it comes to protecting your pets and items in your home. Does this Spark an idea?
