Instructions for use of FAS sulfur bomb
Before setting fire to a FAS bomb in a room, it is necessary to prepare it. The smoke released during the combustion process has a destructive effect on the metal. And to prevent this, all metal parts must be painted or greased in advance.
Usage
You should also cover vents, close windows, seal doors, and seal all through holes and cracks to prevent smoke from escaping. This product has hazard class 2. As long as the FAS checker is burning, it is strictly prohibited to enter the treated area. Fumigation lasts 24-36 hours.
Indoors
When carrying out fumigation in non-residential premises, you should first calculate the required number of packages of the product. Otherwise, the procedure will be ineffective.
Instructions for use:
- Place fireproof brick stands measuring 30 x 30 cm on the floor.
- Place FAS checkers on them, remove the protective film.
- Light the fuse.
- Leave the room within 90 seconds before toxic smoke begins to be released.
- Close the door tightly.
Greenhouse treatment
The optimal period for fumigating a greenhouse is autumn, when the harvest is harvested. But in order for it to be as effective as possible, disinfection must be carried out before frost sets in. The optimal period is the end of September.
In the event of mass reproduction of pests and pathogens, it is also recommended to use a FAS sulfur bomb to fumigate the greenhouse in the spring. In this case, disinfestation must be carried out no later than 3 weeks before planting. In this case, it is necessary that the soil has time to warm up to +100C degrees, since cold soil actively absorbs sulfuric anhydride, and this negatively affects the further development and fruiting of crops.
Before disinfestation, all plant debris must be removed from the greenhouse and burned. Then you should loosen the soil 5 cm deep. This will improve the efficiency of fumigation. During the procedure, it is important that the soil is dry, since when sulfur interacts with moisture, sulfurous acid is formed, which kills all organic matter.
The greenhouse must be closed during processing. After this, it needs to be ventilated for 2-3 days. Before this, you cannot go inside the greenhouse.
In the cellar, basement
Before using a FAS sulfur smoke bomb to treat a basement or cellar, it is necessary to remove all food and preserved food and close the ventilation holes.
In the cellar
After lighting the wick, you must quickly leave the room and close the entrance to the basement or cellar. The duration of processing is 3 days, since at high humidity the checker smolders longer. After this, the room should be ventilated for 3-4 days.
Bath treatment
You can also use the FAS sulfur block to treat a bath. In this case, the product helps to destroy bacteria and fungi that form at high air humidity. Before carrying out the procedure, you need to anoint all metal parts with grease.
To carry out disinfestation, increased safety measures should be taken. When using a sulfur bomb in a bathhouse, you must first place it in a tin can, and then install the structure on a brick stand. This is necessary to prevent possible fire.
After lighting the wick, you should immediately leave the room and close the door tightly. The duration of the treatment is 3 days; upon completion, the bathhouse should be ventilated for 3-4 days until the smell of sulfur has completely disappeared. The protective effect of the drug lasts 3 months.
Flaws
- the sulfur dioxide released is toxic to humans and animals if inhaled, causing death
- will not destroy mold deeply embedded in wood
- will not destroy fungal or pest spores in the soil
- Before processing a vegetable storehouse or cellar, you need to remove all vegetables
- oxidizes metal
- survives burns on plants, cannot be used to control disease or mites on live plants in a greenhouse, balcony or greenhouse
- a smoke bomb is a fire hazard and must be placed further away from flammable material
- It is not allowed to treat basements or cellars with high humidity, for example, when there is close groundwater
Precautionary measures
When using a FAS smoke bomb, increased precautions should be taken, since this product is classified as highly toxic. Before processing, you need to wear goggles, a respirator or gas mask, rubber gloves and clothing that covers exposed areas of the body as much as possible.
After setting the fuse on fire, you should immediately leave the room and do not enter it while the FAS smoke bomb is burning. At the end of the procedure, you should open the doors wide and wait a few days.
The manufacturer, in the instructions for use of this product, indicated that FAS sulfur bomb is toxic to bees, fish, birds and warm-blooded animals. Also, the drug cannot be used simultaneously with other disinfectants.
Gas protection
You can protect yourself from toxic sulfur anhydride using a gas mask. You can use a respirator and safety glasses , but only if the room where the treatment is carried out is small and a maximum of two tablets is used.
As a rule, two people carry out the processing. One controls the process, and the other processes the room. If the floor in the greenhouse is wooden, you cannot place a saber with a wick on it. For this, a basin or other objects .
You cannot be distracted by food or drink liquids during the process. There should be no children or animals nearby. Immediately after setting fire, a person must leave the room ; being among the smoke is extremely dangerous. If several checkers are set on fire, they should be lit in such order that the handler moves towards the exit and has time to get out before the smoke starts to flow.
Symptoms of poisoning
Failure to comply with precautions may result in sulfuric anhydride poisoning. Caustic gas entering the human respiratory tract causes irritation of the mucous membranes. Against this background, tickling and cough appear. Subsequently, the person begins to feel a headache, dizziness, general weakness, and nausea.
Dizziness
Safety
If the room is large, you need to distribute the tablets in different places, evenly over the area, start lighting from the checkers located further from the exit, so as not to have time to inhale.
After setting fire to a bomb in a greenhouse or greenhouse, leave the area as quickly as possible. Warn your dacha neighbors in advance - when the tablets smolder, gas leaks through the cracks in the structure. You can reduce this leakage by sealing all possible joints and crevices with tape.
Powdered sulfur can cause eczema, and the fumes can cause poisoning, so you only need to handle the saber while wearing gloves, and wash your hands immediately after handling. Avoid any inhalation of smoldering bomb fumes.
- You can store food in vegetable stores or cellars no earlier than 5 days after processing
- After fumigation, keep the room closed for 24-36 hours
- after 36 hours, open for ventilation for 48 hours
- The protective effect of sulfur smoke is 8-12 days
Sulfur block for polycarbonate greenhouse
The sulfur block can be used in any greenhouses made of polycarbonate or with film and glass coating, if the frame is made of wooden beams and bars. Metal surfaces are oxidized by the action of the sulfur bomb, so the greenhouse on such racks can be damaged.
There are recommendations for pre-coating metal structures, including galvanized profiles, before treatment with special compounds, but this is a rather labor-intensive task and not always reliable. Although the aluminum profile, as a rule, does not suffer.
The polycarbonate itself from the sulfur bomb does not noticeably deteriorate - it does not become cloudy or crack, unless the dosage is exceeded; much more often it is destroyed by climatic factors - bright sun and frost. Manufacturers indicate the chemical compatibility of polycarbonate: “requires precautions with sulfurous acid (sulfur dioxide),” and is not resistant to sulfuric acid. Indeed, there are known cases when a slight clouding of polycarbonate occurred after sulfur bombs. To avoid this, you simply need to wipe all polymer surfaces dry before fumigation.
Negative reviews
The resulting sulfur dioxide settles and, in the presence of moisture (condensation and moisture from all kinds of fruits and vegetables), dissolves, creating sulfurous acid.
Of course you know its impact.
Until it is neutralized, it will not calm down.
The stench will be terrible and will not disappear for a long time. Everything oiled is a complete scribe, and you can’t even wear a padded jacket.
I especially don’t recommend it for the underground floors of houses.
In general, this thing is only good for sabotage at a rural disco. For better storage of workpieces, there are much more humane and effective means.
Which saber to choose to fight against fleas indoors?
According to the editors of the site dezbox.ru, any of the checkers can be used against fleas, it is impossible to say which is better or worse, you just need to take into account such parameters as the mass of one checker and its concentration of DV. And remember that the manufacturer almost always inflates the figures in the technical specifications. For example, if the instructions say it is designed to treat a room of up to 100 m3, then in practice it is 50 m3, it is better to have a reserve. Let these little bastards receive a large dose of the poisonous substance.
Another recommendation is to always try to determine the breeding ground or understand where fleas are coming from indoors. It happens that fleas are poisoned indoors, but the basement is not treated, and the breeding ground is in the basement, so you need to get to the root of the problem and cut it at the root! In this situation, treat the basement.

We use chemicals
Once settled in an apartment, fleas bite unpleasantly and can transmit various dangerous diseases to humans. People often encounter difficulties, because it is quite difficult to get rid of the problem themselves - disinfestation must be carried out in all dwellings of a high-rise building. For a private and multi-storey building, the method of exterminating fleas is the same; it consists of several stages: thorough cleaning of the apartment and furniture, preventing infection of pets, and spraying rooms with insecticides.
When you have cleaned the house and protected your pets from infection, you can begin disinfesting the house with chemicals. The most effective remedy for blood-sucking beetles is a toxic substance in the form of an insecticidal spray or concentrated dust.
Let's take a closer look at the method of exterminating small pests using chemicals.
Before disinfestation begins, remove or hide food products from the premises. Cover all household appliances, furniture and kitchen utensils with plastic wrap. And also there should be no pets, children or adults in the house who are not involved in disinfestation.
Take care of your safety, because the poison can cause harm if it gets into the respiratory tract or onto the mucous surface of the eyes. Wear gloves, goggles, a mask and clothing, which you will change immediately after disinsection of the apartment. After preparations, securely lock all doors and windows.
Spray the poison with insecticidal spray, covering an area 50 cm from the floor
Be sure to carry out the procedure in all rooms so that insects do not have the opportunity to hide anywhere.
Upon completion of treatment, carefully remove protective equipment, change clothes and wash your hands, then leave the room for a couple of hours. Disinsection must take place indoors for at least 2 hours, then the apartment must be ventilated
Airing time usually lasts from half an hour to several hours - it depends on the chosen drug and the time of year.
After completing disinfestation with a chemical agent, be sure to clean the room - wipe all frequently used surfaces, floors and windows with a damp cloth.
Fleas reproduce at an incredibly fast rate - they can lay eggs before they are killed by the insecticide. Spray and dust cannot destroy the eggs, so after a week the disinfestation must be repeated to get rid of the hatched larvae. To prevent further flea infestations, use special crayons with poison.
