Mosquito Vaporizer vs Spray vs Coil: Which Is Right for Your Home?

A vaporizer, a spray and a coil each suit a different need. A vaporizer gives steady cover in a room without a flame or smoke. A spray works at the moment you use it. A coil burns and produces smoke and ash. Mosquito Furr makes vaporizers, sprays, an insect killer and an outdoor roll-on.

How do a vaporizer, a spray and a coil compare?

Type How it works Best for Things to know
Liquid vaporizer A refill bottle fits into a machine that plugs into a wall socket. Bedrooms and living rooms, every evening. No flame, no smoke. Needs a power socket and an occasional refill.
Spray You spray the room or area by hand. Quick use when mosquitoes are already around. Works when you use it, so you need to reapply as the label directs.
Coil You burn one end and it smoulders. Open spaces such as verandahs. Produces smoke and ash and involves a burning item, so it must be placed carefully and never left unattended.
Roll-on You apply dots to your clothes. Outdoor evenings, walks, picnics. Follow the label: apply on clothes, away from the nose.

Which is best for a bedroom?

For a bedroom, many families prefer a liquid vaporizer because it runs without a flame or smoke and keeps working through the evening and night. Choose the pack type that suits you: a refill if you have a machine, a machine kit if you are starting out, or a multi-pack to stock up.

When is a spray the better choice?

A spray suits a quick job: freshening up a room before the evening or a space that is not covered by a vaporizer. Mosquito Furr sprays come in 90ML and 180ML automizer packs in Herbal, Super and Camphor Active++. For flying insects in a room, there is the Mosquito Furr Nanosol Flying Insect Killer Super Active++.

What about outdoors?

For evenings outside, a roll-on is easy to carry. The Mosquito Furr Fabric Roll On (9ml) is applied as four dots on clothes, two on the upper body and two on the lower body, away from the nose.

Can I use more than one?

Many households use a vaporizer in the bedrooms and keep a spray for quick use. Read the label of each product and follow it.
