Mosquito help
 
We started moving into our house this afternoon, which could be a mistake and I should have known better but was excited to get in it every time we opened the door the flock of Mosquitos outside would make there way in. So my questions are what's the best thing to get the ones inside the house dead and what's the best way to get the ones outside either dead or away from my door

Put a thermocell at the door.

Talstar works well for us. Our neighbor across the street didn't have it in his yard and we were getting bitten in his yard. Had to move to our yard to visit and had no bites! You can get it in liquid or granules.

j.e.hagen 05-06-2013 09:33 PM

Thanks, I'm guessing any hardware store would have talstar

Big pond 05-06-2013 10:23 PM

I live in big lake where they are bad I have a misting system works good right around the house but they are still in the yard I have another mister that works with a gad blower thar I mist my yard with once a week and this works well together just search mosquito 86 to find it

ryanjag07 05-06-2013 10:33 PM

I second the bifen it...can get it at the feed stores

wetaline 05-06-2013 10:35 PM

You can order the Talstar from domyownpestcontrol.com They have free shipping on it: http://www.domyownpestcontrol.com/ta...ucts-c-40.html I used the liquid so that I could spray it not only in the yard but on the bottom 2-3 ft. of my house. It kills fleas, mosquitoes, spiders.

I also live in Big Lake and had a mist system installed and it worked great till the Hurricane Ike came through and lost my system, didn't install another one due to cost of replacement. I use Permethrin now I purchase at the local feed star, I use the highest concentration and mix in spray bottle and spray on EVERYTHING. Works great and also keeps spiders and webs and other insects away, has about a 3 month residual factor.

I also use premetherin. For fleas, ticks, white flies, etc...... spray the yard and my house.

I use tal-star for red ants in the yard.

I buy all my pest control product at the local feed store. This weekend I was going to wash my house and put down some termite poison.

my front door is like a cove and they would gang up and attack when you opened the door. the wife planted 2 citroella plants (from lowes) by the door in pots, and her grandpa told us to put bay leafs in the flower arrangement hanging on the door.. IT WORKED!... always trust grandpa!

Smalls 05-07-2013 08:16 AM

I sprayed some Off! on my front door once and they disappeared from around the door. Was surprised at how well that worked.

j.e.hagen 05-07-2013 01:49 PM

Duffy did you put anything in that bottle to attract them?

swamp snorkler 05-07-2013 03:09 PM

j.e.hagen 05-07-2013 09:36 PM

Thanks for the help fellas

CHUM STAIN 05-08-2013 07:52 PM

Bifen i/t works great on everything!

bullcroaker 05-08-2013 08:26 PM

I work in mosquito control and one time I had thousands of mosquitoes that i took out of the freezer that i was going to count after lunch. During luch i guess they thawed out and after lunch my lab walls were covered with thousands of mosquitoes. I found if you have a ton of mosquitoes resting on the walls inside your house a shop vac wil suck them up and then you can dump them in the trash outside.

bullcroaker 05-08-2013 08:27 PM

And also keep outside lights off at night or have tem on motion sensor.

Them

j.e.hagen 05-08-2013 09:34 PM

I'm puttin the killabug in action tonight I looked at the active ingredient and it is 25% permethrin and if I remember right it takes 6 ounces per 20 gallons

JAg 05-09-2013 08:32 PM

Permethrin 36.8 % 1oz - 3gal
( kills on contact)

Biferthrin 7.9% talstar p 1oz - 1gal this is a boundry mosquitos want come near where it is sprayed

cyzmic cs 1oz - 3gal this is oil for residual will keep the permethrin and biferthrin in a bubble of oil for 21 days when a mosquito lands it pops bubble and kills it

mix these all together

when you get mosquitos back just spray the permithrin and biferthrin then after 21 days spray the cyzmic.

this is the same thing the mosquito authority sprays and they guarantee no mosquitos

you can also get altsoid pro-g to put in small water around your house this kills the larve

j.e.hagen 05-19-2013 08:46 PM

Just wanted to give a little up date the kill a bug which is 25% permethrin works very well. I sprayed under my porch and as long as your under it they ain't bad you step out to the grass and you get drained

inchspinner 05-19-2013 09:05 PM

I use 99.9% deet, works wonders.....

Where do you find all of this

calcutta37 06-11-2013 09:18 PM

If you spray bifin once a week after your grass is mowed you should not have any bugs.

deek248 06-12-2013 12:47 AM

GREAT info guys!

Will this stuff work on deer flies? And does it harm plants? I need something I can spray around my pool. The deer flies get vicious during the summer.

calcutta37 06-12-2013 04:23 AM

It should and I spray the yard, plants, fence, all around my back door. Pretty much spray everything.

Goooh 06-12-2013 06:03 AM

My buddy has a misting system on a timer, the misters hang on his gutters and are fed by a 55 gal drum. He says he has to fill it about once a year to once every 2 years.

Lives in hackberry and has zero mosquito problem, not sure who makes it or what is in it, but may be worth looking into - ill have a setup on my next house when I get back out in the country...
