Smoke, or as it is also called sulfur bomb bug, resembles an aerosol agent. However, it lacks the ability to control the smoke stream.

Therefore, poisonous couples will get bloodsuckers in the interior of the sofa or bed - where detect bugs nests visual inspection is sometimes very difficult.

Smoke bombs vary in composition. They may contain powerful insecticidal components in the form of:

• Sulfur compounds forming sulfur dioxide during combustion. They are highly poisonous compounds with insecticidal, antifungal and bactericidal properties. Therefore, sulfur checkers are used in damp rooms, where there is a need to get rid of mold.
• Permethrin is a powerful insecticidal component that affects the nervous system of an insect. The consequence of this effect is paralysis and death of the parasite.
• Hexachloran is a toxic component that contains chlorine and has a nerve-paralytic effect on parasites.
• Didecyldimethylammonium bromide - a substance with high bactericidal and fungicidal properties, which allows the use of similar tools in agricultural facilities to combat fungal infections.

Advantages and disadvantages of the product

Most people leave positive reviews about smoke bombs from bugs. They are also often used for processing apartments pest control officers. After all, this method of combating parasites is very effective - insecticidal microparticles penetrate into the most inaccessible places, which cannot be said even about aerosol products. Smoke bombs have a wide range of effects, affecting both bed bugs and other domestic pests. In addition, the processing of the premises does not require special preparation.

The disadvantages of the method include toxicity of smoke bombs. Despite the fact that most of the components are relatively safe, they can cause intoxication of the body. The absence of residual action is another minus of the means. After all, poisonous vapors affect only adults.

Reviews

I regularly use checkers in greenhouses. No fungus, no pests. The main thing is not to stay in the room so that then there are no health problems.

Victor Petrovich, Moscow

We bought a sofa at the cottage, and with it a “surprise” in the form of bugs. Sprayed it with an aerosol - it did not help. But the checker helped get rid of bed bugs on the couch, at the same time and wood lice in the house did not.

Natalia, Balabanovo

Often I use smoke bombs when fishing. I set fire to the wick, and mosquitoes do not disturb. Relax and enjoy your health!

Yuri, Sochi

For non-residential premises, the use of smoke bombs can be a good option, for disinsection of an apartment it is still better to choose a fireproof, but effective remedy for bedbugs.
