Probably depending on which type. I think the mesh filters let too much fluid pass thru and you won't get atomization. It will just spurt out and finish your talk fast.
What I found is the the insect killer is oil based and that the oil was plugging up the filter, going to try an aquarium filter. Like you worst Ryobi product made.
I looked into a few, like small engine fuel filters. The mesh type allows too much to pass thru and the other type is similar to the one we already have. So defeats the purpose.
I recommend starting small and test, then add more as needed. If the slit/hole you make is too big then you'll just get a big squirt and it wont really mist well.
Just got mine a few days ago and right out of the box exact same issue. Especially with pesticides that increase the viscosity of the fluid. I tried removing the filter and it really throws the fluid but with much less atomization. Would you did looks more like a happy medium.
Yes, I noticed after i did a few too many holes. it squirting and not what I wanted ,so I glued a few of them shut. Are you able to add the filter back?
@@CarlexDIY Mine was squirting even before I cut a few slits with just water. I did two on opposite sides of the filter. Definitely helped. But it still seems intermittent at the half tank level and I really don’t like how it needs to be kept level or tilted up. Most of the plants I want to fog are low to the ground so I need to tilt down. I like the idea and convenience of a battery powered fogger for garden use. Also how light weight it is. But for now it needs to work at least a little better than it does.
