With Tears in my Eyes

DOOM Fogger. The heat, the flies the reason why I bought the product does not matter. I actually wanted to get cans of DOOM fly spray - I saw these cans of DOOM long before I saw cans of " DOOM fogger"" I immediately , noticed that they looked very similar to "DOOM fly spray" so I bought four. Got home and thought why all these " "WARNING. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS , DO NOT USE WITHOUT READING THE INSTRUCTIONS " signs on the can so I thought , hell first time I have ever seen a warning sign on a fly spray can. This must be the mother of all fly sprays - kill them at 10 m , that kind of thing. I had better read the instructions - AND THAT IS WERE THE WHEELS FELL OFF -I challenge anybody at Tiger Brands Product safety to read these damn instructions . Even with a magnifying glass and a torch , I could not read them. .Tiger Brand with tears in my eyes,because that is what I ended up with, do one of three things. 1. PRINT your WARNING in a size that people can read size 12 is fine , My eyes? why do you ask. They are 74 years old, yes I do wear glasses and they can still see well enough for me to pass the driving licence eye test. or 2 . Print the warnings in size 12 Times Roman font on a piece of standard A4 size paper then fold the paper into a strip 30mm wide roll it up and fit it into the green can cap. . Now on the can print - PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED ON A3 sheet of paper fitted into the lid of this tin. 3. Change the colour of the DOOM fogger cans to fire engine red so that "Idiots" like me do not think that what they are looking at is a superman version of Doom Fly spray , that's why it has all the warnings. You know the old marketing adage " IF IT LOOKS LIKE DOOM FLY SPRAY - IT MUST BE DOOM FLY SPRAY is not always true. They might look alike but one of them is actually quite lethal if incorrectly used . I eventually got somebody half my age who also battled to read the warning but he knew the product and he explained to me how to use and his warning to me was No!!!! YOU DON'T JUST SPRAY IT HERE THERE AND EVERYWHERE as you would with DOOM fly spray because it really does irritate the eyes - if you had a can of fly spray and a can of fogger together on a shelf , a child looking for fly spray could quite easily pick up a tin of fogger and as children like to do, spray her sister because there was a fly on her. I mistook them in a well lit Checkers store in the middle of the day.
