    Q
    Is there is a house fogger I can use to completely eliminate pantry moths?
    I have the traps for pantry moths. I am about to lose my mind. I have been dealing with them for six months.
    A

    While fogging may kill moths out and about, it will not take care of the problem. The best way to eliminate pantry moths is to find the infested food items and dispose of them immediately and thoroughly clean the infested cabinet. The moth larvae (immature moths) can usually be found in grain products such as pasta, rice, flour, or spices. The adult moths and wandering larvae can be killed with CY-Kick aerosol. The active male moths can be lured and trapped with the Pro-pest Pantry Moth trap. We have put together A Pantry Pest kit that contains everything you need to get rid of the pantry moths.  Please read our article on How to Get Rid of Pantry Moths for more information.

    Q
    termites
    can you recommend a fogger for termites
    A
    Pyrethrum TR Total Release Insecticide is not labeled for termites and fogging for termites is not a successful treatment as foggers are not going to penetrate through walls or into wood to treat active termite colonies. PT Tri-Die Pressurized Dust Insecticide does list termites on the product label however this would not be a substitute for a soil barrier treatment or foundation treatment if treating Subterranean Termites or as a Borate wood treatment for Drywood Termites. 
     
    Per the product label: Apply as a spot treatment for localized infestation. Probe to locate galleries, drill holes and inject the PT Tri-Die Pressurized Dust Insecticide into the holes at the rate of 5 to 10 sec/hole into the active galleries and void areas. The purpose of such treatment is to kill workers or winged forms which may be present in the treated galleries at the time of treatment, and to impart a temporary resistance to attack, which may aid to prevent immediate reinfestation.
