Used carburetor cleaner in an emergency because it was the closest thing I
could grab and I needed something/anything right now.
Still, I recommend evening or night when they are all in and cold weather
when they can't move much. The more you get the less that get you. One a
tower, danger, bad news. Safety gear, no clothing they can get into and
face mask and gloves if you can.
