When fogging, every time you are squeezing the trigger, the fogger pump is forcing the insecticide through the heat-conducting coil the heat is instantly vaporizing the insecticide and producing the fog.

Always remember to purchase an extension cord that will fir the fogger’s gauge, which in the case of the Black Flag 190107 needs to be a 3-pronged, 10, 12, or 14-gauge extension cord. Using a proper gauge extension cord, plug the fogger into a convenient outlet.
