SPRAYERS
PRODUCT: The picture above shows the family of sprayers we currently
carry. We have one which is right for any application and/or individual
need. Prices vary accordingly. Listed below is a description
of each sprayer and whether or not it is suited for this job.
HOSE END SPRAYER "A": This is a very basic sprayer and one that
attaches to your garden hose. It has a little switch on
top which is used to turn the sprayer on or off. When
turned on, water will flow through the top of the sprayer
without taking any chemical from the holding tank with
it. In order to get the chemical to flow with the water
out the nozzle, you need to hold your finger over the
little hole which is positioned to the right of the nozzle
on top. This creates a vacuum in the tank which in turn will
enable it's contents to flow out. This sprayer is called
a "6 Gallon Sprayer" because when its tank is filled it
will require 6 gallons of water to pump it empty. Generally
best suited for jobs which require a lot of water and
little chemical, this sprayer is rarely a good choice
except for limited applications or if you are using a
wettable powder formulation. This sprayer sells for $5.00
plus shipping.
THIS MODEL CANNOT BE USED FOR DRENCHING BUT CAN BE USED
FOR FOUNDATION SPRAYING.

HOSE END SPRAYER "B": This is another very basic sprayer and one that
attaches to your garden hose. It has a little switch on
top which is used to turn the sprayer on or off. When
turned on, water will flow through the top of the sprayer
without taking any chemical from the holding tank with
it. In order to get the chemical to flow with the water
out the nozzle, you need to hold your finger over the
little hole which is positioned to the right of the nozzle
on top. This creates a vacuum in the tank which in turn will
enable it's contents to flow out. This sprayer is called
a "20 Gallon Sprayer" because when its tank is filled it
will require 20 gallons of water to pump it empty. Generally
best suited for jobs which require a lot of water and
little chemical, this sprayer is rarely a good choice
except for limited applications or if you are using a
wettable powder formulation. This sprayer sells for $5.00
plus shipping.
THIS MODEL CANNOT BE USED FOR DRENCHING BUT CAN BE USED
FOR FOUNDATION SPRAYING.
________________________________________________________________
HOSE END SPRAYER "C": This is another hose end sprayer. It attaches to
a garden hose and uses the water from the hose to carry
the chemical out, premixed, and over the designated area
to treat. This sprayer has a holding tank which can hold
about 20 ounces of any Emulsifiable Concentrate. The top
has a dial setting which graduates in teaspoons. Fill the
tank with chemical, dial the top to the proper mix per
gallon of water, hook it to your garden hose, turn the
water on and you are ready to spray. This sprayer works
by suction. As the water passes through the sprayer top
it sucks out the right amount of liquid chemical so that
the end result leaving the sprayer is an end product
properly mixed. This sprayer is slightly better then the
ones listed above for the reason that you don't have to
hold a finger over a hole. However, there are limiting features
of this sprayer. First, it cannot be used inside. Second,
it is not an exact measurement of chemical usage and
there is a tendency to use too much chemical and to
be wasteful. Third, it involves the use of a lot of
water and can be messy. It is also important to understand
this sprayer cannot be used for wettable powders. You
can only use it to apply liquid concentrates. This sprayer
is best suited for outside applications in the yard or
against the house and is OK if you need to spray heavy
and don't care about using a lot of chemical. This sprayer
is very different from a Miracle Gro sprayer. It is called
the Dial-A-Mix and sells for $10.00 plus shipping.
THIS MODEL CANNOT BE USED FOR DRENCHING BUT CAN BE USED
FOR FOUNDATION SPRAYING.

PUMP SPRAYER "D": This is a quart sprayer which comes with a pump for tank
compression. It has an adjustable nozzle, a handy lock on switch
for continuous spraying and a sturdy tank which will withstand
long use. Pump it up and you will be able to spray over 20 feet
away when the nozzle is adjusted to a pin stream. It can hold
1 1/4 quarts and is perfect for small applications, apartment
dwellers or for uncommon applications. This sprayer is capable
of spraying both our liquid and wettable powder formulations.
The tank is very durable and should be able to withstand
years of use and abuse. This sprayer is $12.00 plus shipping.
NOW AVAILABLE in a 2 1/4 quart sized tank, this larger
capacity sprayer has all the same features including a handy
22 inch extension which enables you to reach high or low
with great control. The drift guard cone at the end of the
nozzle ensures you spray where you want without excessive
waste or runoff. This design sells for $25.00 and is an
excellent choice for when the smaller quart sprayer is just
not large enough for your needs. BE SURE TO STATE THE CORRECT
MODEL WHEN ORDERING ON LINE OR ON THE PHONE. ASK FOR EITHER
THE $12.00 1 QUART SPRAYER "D" OR THE $25.00 2 QUART SPRAYER "D"
WITH THE 22 INCH EXTENSION.
THIS MODEL CANNOT BE USED FOR DRENCHING BUT CAN BE USED
FOR FOUNDATION SPRAYING.
________________________________________________________________
PUMP SPRAYER "E": This is our entry level or "Basic" 1 gallon Pump
Sprayer. It features a tank which can hold just over one
gallon of water, it has an adjustable nozzle and is used
by filling it with water, adding chemical and then hand
pumping it for pressure. It can spray up to 15 feet high,
will handle most jobs around the home and garden but is
not built for options or to hold up for many years. Expect
to get one good year of use from this sprayer. For this
reason, it is a good choice for one time jobs or when you
only have a need to use a sprayer for a limited time.
It has a short extension wand and is not a good choice if
you intend on spraying on a regular basis. This sprayer
sells for $20.00 and comes with a full 1 year warranty.
Plus shipping.
THIS MODEL IS EXCELLENT FOR FOUNDATION SPRAYING AND FOR
MOUND DRENCHING AS WELL. BE SURE TO REMOVE THE NOZZLE TO

PUMP SPRAYER "F": This is the true Professional B&G Stainless Steel
sprayer so commonly known to be the choice of pest control
operators. It features a stainless steel tank, an extenda ban
drip valve (which has a cable running through the extension
to the nozzle which insures quick, dripless on/off operation)
and comes with the multeejet nozzle (two pinstreams and two
fan patterns). It comes standard with an 18" valve extension
but the 8" is available at the same cost if required (most
people like the longer extension since it will let you treat
without having to reach down or up as much). B&G has been
making sprayers since the beginning of the pest control industry
and this sprayer incorporates all the years of advancement and
development in pump sprayer design. All parts of this sprayer
are serviceable and we carry them all or can get them within
a few days. Though not needed when doing most treatments
around the home, this tool is essential to anyone doing any
amount of pest control on a regular basis. These sprayers
sell for $250.00 plus shipping.

PUMP SPRAYER "G": This is our One Gallon Pump Sprayer which is clearly our
biggest seller. We have it custom built to our specifications
which includes an adjustable brass nozzle, a check flow
filter located at the nozzle which prevents dripping when
the valve is shut off in addition to filtering the flow and
a relief valve located on top of the tank. The heavy duty
poly tank is both UV protected and thick enough to withstand
a lot of abuse. It comes with a fixed pin stream tip and a
fixed fan pattern tip as well if the adjustable is just not
able to get the right flow for your application. The wand is
very durable, the spray handle features a lock on setting for
continuous spraying and it is very easy to maintain and repair.
We offer a lifetime warranty on this sprayer which means if
if ever breaks we will repair it free of charge for as long
as you own it! This sprayer is great for most applications
in and around the home and can be used to apply just about
any of our products. Optional pressure gauge, spray boom and
relief valve cap are available with details near the bottom

PUMP SPRAYER "H": This sprayer is the same as our 1 Gallon custom
built Sprayer "G", but features a tank which is just larger
then 2 gallons. Our 2 Gallon Pump Sprayer has all the same
components as the 1 Gallon but enables the applicator to
carry twice as much material for spraying. Most people don't
like having all this extra weight and the one gallon is
more suitable, but having twice the tank size can cut down
on fill-up time and double work. This sprayer comes
with the same full warranty and has all the same options
available for it. This 2 Gallon Sprayer sells for $40.00 plus
shipping and the optional add-ons are listed at the bottom

PUMP SPRAYER "I": This is our 2.5 gallon rollabout sprayer which has all
of the features as the One Gallon "D" sprayer but is twice as
large, comes on a pair of wheels so you are able to wheel it
around the yard and has a longer hose attached to the spray
wand. It has all the same filters, the same attachments and
is capable of any of the jobs the 1 gallon can do. However,it
is more suited for outside applications. Since it can be rolled
around, the extra weight due to the larger tank capacity is
easy to move through the yard. If you need a good garden or
yard sprayer and want a sprayer that can hold a little more
than the traditional 1 gallon and is easy to move around,
this is the one for you. This sprayer is $60.00 plus shipping
and there are optional add-ons listed at the bottom of this page.

this sprayer features all heavy duty components. It has a pressure
gauge attached to the valve, a check flow filter at the nozzle,
adjustable brass nozzle standard and extra strong tank. It has
a locking valve and pump handle which is both comfortable to
use and easy to pump. The shoulder straps are easy to adjust
and comfortable compared to similar designs featured on other
models. The best way to use these straps is to pull them loose,
place the sprayer on your back and then pull them tight from
the front. They feature a one way adjustment which acts like a
cinch. You are able to pull it tight quite easily allowing
for a tight comfortable fit. This sprayer can be used inside
but it is really designed for outside applications where 2-4
gallons will be applied. It has a four gallon tank but you only
need to mix up what you intend on using. All parts are
interchangeable with the 2.5 gallon pullalong and our 1 gallon
pump sprayer. It sells for $100.00 plus shipping and

small jobs, apartment dwellers who don't need a large sprayer

pliable hose. The valve can be locked on for continuous
spraying and the nozzle is fully adjustable from a fan to
a jet stream. It has a rechargeable battery which is built
into the top of the sprayer and the recharger is included
when purchased. One full charge is enough power to pump
the tank empty over 20 times but we recommend recharging
every 10 fills to keep it powerful enough for most jobs.
Only use Liquid Concentrates and no Wettable Powders
through it since they will break down the sprayer faster
then normal. This sells for $120.00 plus shipping.

SELF-POWERED SPRAYER "P": This is a Gas Powered Back Pack Sprayer which can
be used as either a Blower or a Sprayer. This model is clearly
the EDITORS CHOICE and needs to be considered by anyone that is
serious about spraying on a regular basis and has a lot of
area to cover. We have sold this unit for many years to people
doing mosquito treatments but there is a lot more that it can do.
Most importantly, it will pay for itself over a season or two
because it allows the applicator to use a lot less chemical
and a lot less time to treat. This Back Pack Sprayer looks and
feels like a basic Air Blower but there is a lot more to it. It
has a three gallon tank and two controls which regulate how
much chemical is being applied. Just crack open the flow
valve, which is located on the same handle as the throttle,
and you can quickly turn up or turn off chemical as needed.
You can let just a little material flow for a light misting
or open the valve all the way for a heavy spray. The Web
Master for Bugspray.com used to spray 3-4 gallons of material
with Sprayer "I", the 2.5 Gallon Rollabout, which took around
45-60 minutes to complete. Now he uses this Back Pack Sprayer and
uses only 1 gallon of material and treats the same area is
just over 10 minutes!! Most importantly, he is covering pretty
much everything since the mist blankets all which is sprayed.
You will be able to treat 10 feet away from the structure and
10 feet up the side of the structure in a matter of seconds!
Furthermore, if there is little or no breeze, you will be able
to reach heights of 30 plus feet with the spray. This ability
to cover large areas quickly puts you in control of any pest problem!
The performance of this tool is astounding. Many areas previously
unreachable are now being treated right and the results are
evident. Basically, there is no where for any insect to hide
when you make a pass with this machine. It comes with three
different attachments for the nozzle which serve to diffuse
the spray in either a straight, an upward, a downward or
a lateral direction. These nozzles enable you to
easily direct the spray up under low plants, shrubs and trees
as well as laterally when treating rows of landscaping.
The motor is surprisingly quiet for a 2 stroke and it starts
very easily. Another feature of this sprayer is that it will
serve you as a very powerful Blower for the yard and walk ways
on your property. Simply turn the valve for the chemcial to the
off position and only air will blow out when you increase the
throttle. If you are in the market for a Back Pack Blower, look
no more. This machine will easily handle all your blowing
needs and the Spraying capability of it will make it a tool you
will love to use. If you are ready to get serious about doing
some spraying for bugs, you need a serious sprayer. This
Gas Powered Back Pack is as good as it gets, period! Don't
let the $600.00 price tag scare you either. It will more
then pay for itself with the savings in both time and chemical
you will realize over 2-3 years of use.

SPRAYER OPTIONS
SPRAYER OPTION "A": This Spray Boom comes with two nozzles and attaches
to the end of the wand extension allowing for special
application coverage such as treating rafters and ceiling
beams. Either side of the boom can be adjusted and the
included nozzles are flat fan patterns. Furthermore, the
boom is made of a strong plastic which can be heated and
bent to form another angle if needed. This option sells
for $20.00 and will fit on sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
SPRAYER OPTION "B": The Relief Valve Replacement Cap is used to replace
the relief valve which comes on sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
By installing this cap, you are able to pressurize the tank
above the restricted limit of 45 lbs of pressure which the
manufacturer recommends. We are aware that there are special
needs which might warrant this use but be aware that you
assume all risks associated with over pressurizing the tank
and that you are solely responsible for any damage that happens
to the sprayer, yourself or anything else should you install
one and over pressurize the tank!
SPRAYER OPTION "C": This Pressure Gauge affixes to the Valve and
will give you a constant reading of the current pressure in
your tank. It will fit on sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
________________________________________________________________
SPRAYER OPTION "D": This brass adjustable extension attaches to
your sprayers valve handle and can be used as is, which
is at 23" of length, or can be extended to any length up
to 40". Your nozzle will fit on the end so you are able
to get to hard to reach places with a quick adjustment.
This extension features strong couplers and fittings
so it can handle being fully extended. This option is meant
to be used on Sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
SPRAYER OPTION "E": This plastic extension is designed to add
length to your current configuration. It simply attaches to
your valve and your current wand and nozzle will then attach
to the end of this extension adding a full 24" to your reach.
This option is meant to be used on Sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
SPRAYER OPTION "F": This brass extension is like Option E
except it is brass so it is much more rigid and won't bend
or flex. Use it for special application needs since it is
a full 60" (5 feet) in length and designed for those hard
to reach spots. It comes in two sections which fit together
snug and secure. This option is meant to be used on
Sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
________________________________________________________________
SPRAYER OPTION "G": This plastic Spray Boom is 24" long, has
two nozzles at either end and is designed to be mounted at the
valve or at the end of your sprayers extension. The nozzles
produce a fan pattern and will enable you to get broad
coverage which will get the job done that much faster.
This option is meant to be used on Sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
SPRAYER OPTION "H": This is a plastic Drift Guard which is used
at the end of your wand replacing your current nozzle. This
device features a fan pattern nozzle built in so you are
able to control your applications when needed. This is
a great tool for use when it's windy and you need to avoid
drift or when you need to isolate the target plant or object.
This option is meant to be used on Sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
SPRAYER OPTION "I": The Double Nozzle attachment replaces your
current nozzle and features two nozzles which are fan spraying.
These nozzles can be rotated around so they spray in just about
any direction imaginable. This attachment is great for when
you need to spray in opposite directions. Such an application
could be needed when spraying down a row of plants where you
have multiple rows planted. Instead of having to make a
pass for each row, you will be able to treat two rows
with just one pass. The nozzles included are fully compatible
with any of the other nozzles included with your sprayer
so you can change them as desired. This option is meant to be
used on Sprayers "G", "H", "I" and "J".
________________________________________________________________
SPRAYER OPTION "J": The Wheel Caddy is an add on that can be
fitted on select sprayers. Some of our sprayers feature
a slotted base into which the Wheel Caddy fits. Once
snapped on, you are able to wheel your sprayer around
which is much easier compared to carrying. The Wheel
Caddy can be put on and taken off your Sprayer as needed.
It will work with most of our 1 Gallon, 1.5 Gallon, 2
Gallon, 2.5 Gallon and 3 Gallon tanks that we are currently
selling or have sold in the past. Check with your Sales
Associate to insure you are ordering a Sprayer that will
accomodate the Wheel Caddy if desired. If you are getting
the Caddy as an add on and already own one of our Sprayers,
call in to find out if it will fit the Sprayer you currently
own. This option is mainly meant to be used on Sprayers "G" and "H".
________________________________________________________________

Sprayer only, this 48" Boom is ideal and suited for any
large job. It comes complete with all the needed hardware,
hoses and connectors so all you do is mount it and start
spraying. The Boom itself has 4 fan pattern nozzles
so that you are able to get any job done fast. Remember,
it is designed for use with our Back Pack only which
is Sprayer "J".
