2–3 Minute Talk Script
Safe use of foggers is essential for pest control, sanitation, and facility maintenance. Foggers release fine chemicals that require strict exposure control.
Workers should ventilate the area thoroughly before and after fogging.
Different foggers have different dwell times—workers must follow product instructions carefully.
Wearing appropriate PPE helps reduce inhalation or skin exposure.
Safety Reminders
- Ventilate treated areas.
- Follow chemical dwell times.
- Wear proper PPE.
- Avoid entering until re-entry time is met.
Ask the Crew
