Aerosol Bombs
Are Recommended
The same type of aerosol bombs
wlfich were so helpful in protect-
ing the armed forces from certain
insect pests, are now on the mar-
ket for civilian use, says David
Brannon, Washington extension
entomologist. "Aerosol bombs
are a-handy and convenient meth-
od of ridding rooms of flies, mos-
quitoes; and moths. The contain-
er holds an insecticide dissolved
in liquificd gas under pressure.
When the valve is open, the sud-
den change in pressure allows the
insecticide to disperse tnto tile
air in. the form of fog or fine mist.
"Most of the bombs now on the
market contain a mixture of DDT
and a suitable amount of puri-
fied pyrehtrum extract. Tile pyre-
thrum knocks the insects down
and. the DDT adds the finishing
touch.
"It is necessary to repeat appli-
cations as new infestations of in-
sects come into the room. It is
not practical to apply enough DDT
by the bomb method to build up a
residue on the walls. These bombs
are not effective m controlling
insects such as bedbugs, roaches,
or dog ticks. Neither do aerosols
,ct as fumigants. The aerosol
treatment will not get rid of the
egg or larval stages of clothes
moth, carpet beetles, or mealy
bugs," Brannon adds
