My land lord wants to fog the house for fruit flys that are in the second floor unit. I dont have any in my unit. He will be useing Real Kill Indoor Fogger. How do I find out if my 180 Gallon Aquarium will be in harm or not??
 
Did someone die and rot in the house for month? Your land lord is nuts, fogging a house for fruit flies. They make traps that work great. 960 Vecot fruit fly traps Whitemire is the co, we use them at my work. 2 weeks of keeping the house clean with out flood being out in open is what I would do though intsead of poisoning the air.
 
ya im gonna call him and say for safety of my arowana and catfish i cant have the house fogged. ill even buy the traps and use them instead.
 
im not gonna let him because i can not loose my fish for fruit flys i dont even have in my home.
 
if he insists cover and seal it with something impermeable a tarp or something. Seriously though thats crazy tell him to try the traps they really so work and will be enormously less expensive (which will propbably be the selling point with a land lord)
 
Yeah, the fogging really is overkill. However, if he does still do it, I'd do more than just a towel. I'd probably use a plastic drop cloth and also run lots of carbon in the filters to trap any chemicals that could get into the water
 
ya im gonna ask him if he will use traps instead.
