What should you do if the sprayer shows signs of clogging?

When a sprayer shows signs of clogging, cleaning the nozzles thoroughly is the most effective and immediate solution. Clogging often occurs due to the accumulation of residue, particles, or dried product within the nozzle, which can disrupt the even distribution of the pesticide or herbicide being applied. By cleaning the nozzles, you can ensure that the spray pattern is restored to its intended function, allowing for proper application and coverage.

Regular maintenance, including cleaning nozzles and other components, helps prevent recurring issues and maintains the efficiency of the equipment. It also aids in achieving the desired results of the application while minimizing the risk of uneven treatment or potential harm to plants or the environment. This approach is practical and aligns with standard operating procedures in pest management practices.
