The method includes defining a cavity within a housing of a vapor-generating article, the vapor-generating article having a first end, a second end and a middle section, first inserting at least one portion of a retention medium within the housing between the first end and the middle section, and second inserting a first frangible capsule to be near or at least partially within the retention medium, the first frangible capsule including a first volatile substrate.

The invention is a universal blower attachment that will fit any standard handheld leaf blower or standard backpack blower and a system for atomizing and dispensing insecticides and other liquids, with an adjustable turn valve to adjust liquid pressure, allowing a pressurized tank to continually force liquid through one or more adjustable nozzles for continuous atomization and spraying into the exhaust stream of the leaf blower.

The aerosol-generating article is has an outlet end, a distal end upstream from the outlet end, and a mid-point located an equal distance between the outlet end and the distal end. The article includes a liquid aerosol-forming substrate contained within a frangible capsule, the frangible capsule being located between the distal end and the mid-point. At least a portion of a liquid retention medium is located between the distal end and the mid-point. The article is configured such that, during use, air is capable of being drawn through the article from the distal end to the outlet end.

The method includes releasing an aerosol-forming substrate from a frangible capsule, via an application of an external force, such that the aerosol-forming substrate is retained by a retention medium that contains the frangible capsule, the retention medium being in an aerosol-generating article, coupling the aerosol-generating article to an electrically-operated aerosol-generating device, activating a heater of the electrically-operated aerosol-generating device to at least partially vaporize the aerosol-forming substrate, and drawing air through the aerosol-generating article to entrain the vapor in the air.

The method includes first providing a retention medium in a first element; coaxially aligning a plurality of elements, wrapping the coaxially aligned plurality of elements within a wrapper to form a portion of the aerosol-generating article, the plurality of elements including the first element, the aerosol-generating article having a first end and a second end, the second end being upstream from the first end based on an expected direction of airflow through the aerosol-generating article during normal operational use, second providing at least one capsule, the at least one capsule releasably containing a substrate, and inserting the at least one capsule within the first element, the retention medium being configured to retain the substrate after a release of the substrate from the at least one capsule, the retention medium being devoid of the substrate prior to the release of the substrate from the at least one capsule.

The aerosol-generating article includes a retention medium defining a lumen, a side surface of a first end of the retention medium defining an opening of the lumen, and at least one frangible capsule selectively insertable into the lumen through the opening, the at least one frangible capsule releasably containing a substrate, the retention medium being configured to absorb and retain the substrate after a release of the substrate once the at least one frangible capsule is ruptured by an external force, the retention medium being devoid of the substrate prior to the release of the substrate from the at least one frangible capsule.
