Which electric fly spray fogger.

[Water Wheel]

Any recommendations for a mains fogger.

Flies are suddenly causing stress at milking time, cows treated. water curtain on parlour entrance, big fans in parlour, but still stress.Our old fogger , a Turbair isn't putting out enough spray any more, this works in the covered area of the collecting yard, to clear flies before we start. Its on a pull switch so we are well clear when using it.
I have do do something ,the flys are suddenly worse and as a labor relations move, but not only.

We have an old Turbair fogger . Our dairy sundries man found it second hand for us , a fair few yrs ago !!
Just given it a good service (you can still get spares )
What usually happens is the brass nib or small nozzle thing , whatever you call it , can get clogged , with crap or just any old bit of stuff . It has a nut for removal . We had a slightly larger new nozzle for ours a few yrs ago.
We have 2 large fans each end of the ten ten herringbone , and each blow at each other ! yes yes, I know that does not make sense but my Mrs likes it like that!!
So , when the parlour fills , we shut the doors and stand behind just the one fan and fog in front of it ,which blows the stuff right down the far end and back again.
Best kill we have had for ages , although some fly spray is better than others??
I would try and service the Turbair , and worth noting the brass nut on the end of the thing is clockwise to remove , and then you can get the nozzle /nib out and blow it clear with the airline and the tube back to the container !

Good luck !!

Try a red top fly trap as well. Bleddy brilliant they are.

The Silvalure fly strings are very good too but will make your arm ache winding the buggers in
