How do I prevent salt clogs?
In humid conditions, salt can clump and clog the mechanism. To fix this, users should dump out any old salt, add a small amount of water to the hopper, let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then empty it out and fire rapidly to clear any blockages. Allowing it to dry for 24 hours can also help restore functionality.
Can I use anything other than salt?
The manufacturer strongly recommends using only salt in the Bug-A-Salt blaster. Using alternative materials can damage the device and void any warranties.
Is a Bug-A-Salt blaster toxic?
The Bug-A-Salt is not toxic. It uses ordinary table salt as ammunition, which is non-toxic. The device is designed to be a safe, chemical-free alternative to traditional pest control methods.
