The medical sprayer, also known as an atomizer, disperses disinfectant solutions through a fine mist that prevents too much solution from reaching the wound. It is used to apply hydrogen peroxide and other disinfecting wipes to wounds or burns that might be sensitive to touch. These devices are also good for spraying a light mist of disinfectant on surfaces in the hospital or nursing home to quickly and easily clean them.

These newer disinfectant application tools can be very effective in healthcare settings when the area being sprayed or wiped is very hard to reach by hand and where environmental services staff don’t have time to cover large areas using traditional methods of spraying and wiping. They can also be used to help keep the air in a room smelling fresh and clean, reducing exposure to bacteria, mold and mildew that can cause respiratory illness.

A sprayer and a fogger are both tools used for applying liquids, such as disinfectants or pesticides, but they work in different ways.

A sprayer uses a nozzle to atomize liquid into small droplets that are then sprayed onto a surface. The droplets can vary in size, but they tend to be larger than the droplets produced by a fogger. Sprayers are often used for applying liquids to larger surfaces, such as walls or floors, or for applying liquids to specific areas, such as crops or plants.

A fogger, on the other hand, uses a high-pressure pump to create a mist or fog of small droplets that are then dispersed into the air. The droplets are much smaller than those produced by a sprayer and can remain suspended in the air for longer periods of time, allowing them to reach and cover a larger area. Foggers are often used for treating smaller, hard-to-reach spaces, such as cracks and crevices, or for disinfecting or deodorizing large areas, such as entire rooms or buildings.

In summary, sprayers are better for applying liquids to surfaces, while foggers are better for treating air and hard-to-reach spaces.
