Title: Deodoriser Foggers do they work?
Post by: A Beardsley on July 23, 2007, 01:44:46 pm

As anybody used these deodorised foggers for vehicles and homes? Do they work and how long does the effect last? Any other thoughts/info appreciated.

Here is a ebay link to the machines:

I have one of these machines. I reckon it does a good job. As for how long the effect lasts, it really depends on if, for instance, the car belongs to a smoker. I do one vehicle that is used for stable runs. The owner has me fog the car every 4 to 6 weeks. I charge £20 a time. She suffers from  a few allergies and tells me thay are much better since I started treating her car. The fogger on ebay is a bargain if you get it at that price.

Thanks for the info DJ. How long do you leave the machine in the stable ladies car for and does it get rid of any manure smells? Ever used it to do a room in a house?

Hi Alfie. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
I fill the ladies car with fog which takes about 4 to 5 minutes. It then gets left for about 10 minutes before I open the doors. It gets rid af all the manure odour. If the cars you are treating have air conditioning you can turn it on while you are fogging. It cleans the whole system.
Yes, I have used it in  a room at home. I did my sons room about a week ago. Just takes a bit longer to fill with fog than a car! Does a good job though.
You can get the fluid on ebay a lot cheaper in 5ltr canisters. The price the suppliers charge for the small bottles takes the pee a bit.

I have been using the thermal fogging system for around 6 months and does seem to work pretty well. To do a car thoroughly you need to leave the fog in for at least 20 minutes so it gives plenty of time to work into upholstery, carpets etc... a good tip to use beforehand is to dilute some of the chemical with water into a spray bottle and pre treat the carpets, upholstery and headlining but don't saturate and then brush in slightly with a soft brush, this then attracts the fog even better.
