So, I am looking for a smallish gas powered pack back sprayer for insecticides. And I need it to spray verticle up to my 2nd story eves for wasp control. As well as fog.

5 gallon I think is too big for my old back to haul around.

I'm considering the Stihl SR200, at 2 gallons cap.... but I think that it is more of a fogger.

And also considering the Tomahawk 3 gal unit. Which as I understand will fog and also shoot a stream with the right nozzle gun.

Or any brand and model you'd recommend.

I don't think any battery powered units will have the power needed.

Any advice would be helpful.

Thank you.

I believe the one you specify is a fogger and not anything like a sprayer.

There are backpack sprayers similar to pump up sprayers that are used by exterminators. They are battery or manually powered and spray a stream. I doubt they are able to reach a second story eave on a house.
