The quality of service that you get from your automatic insect control system is directly related to the quality of the water that you put into the system. Shoo-fly's insecticides are designed to remain emulsified in pure, de-ionized water indefinitely. But as we know, our typical water sources do not usually supply us with perfectly pure water.
Some water supplies are unusually hard, or contaminated with destructive biological impurities. The orifice size of our nozzles is 10 microns. A water softener will remove particles down to 50 microns (a "boulder" in comparison). Our water filter will catch particles as small as 1 to 5 microns.
We have found that the use of our water filter when filling your automatic insect control system will extend the life of your nozzles, and will extend the life of your diluted insecticide.
