If you have a room or number of rooms where an infestation of Moths is underway a treatment of Fumers is a powerful and hard-hitting 'first attack' that will put you in a strong position to remove these pests for good.

The Facts About Fumers

The name 'Fumer' or 'Smoke Bomb' can wrongly put people off fuming their homes.  There is a misbelief that smoke will get everywhere and leave the house smelling like a bonfire! However, this is not the case and the facts are here:

• Fumers are a non invasive clean solution to removing your Moth problem
• They only smoke for approximately 15-30 seconds
• They do not fill the room with a dense smoke
• They will not leave a sticky residue or ash/powder on your furniture
• They will leave the room clean and odour free
