The machine divided in 6 categories, Igeba, Best Fogger, Swing Fog, Green Fog, IZ-Fog and Plus Fog as 40,12, 3, 2, 1, 1 machines respectively. Moreover; 49 machines (83.05 %) were given the standard temperature, only 10 machines (16.95 %) were given exceeds the standardized temperature limited. Additionally, 32 machines (54.24 %) were given standardized flow rate of the chemicals particle, while 17 machines (28.81 %) were given exceeds the standardized size limited. Furthermore; 49 machines (83.05 %) were given the standardized particle volume median diameter (VMD). only 10 machines (16.95 %) were given exceeds the standardized limited.
This was the very important study, so as to know the quality of the fogging machine that they were normally used to control of dengue fever in all areas of this province.
