Mosquito relief for outdoor areas

13 years ago

Tractor Supply Company sells a product that looks like battery operated air freshner, but is for mosquito control. My husband was on a large porch at a friend's house who uses it and says it works like a charm! We're going to put it on our porches, in the cat's house and the donkey's enclosure. I'm looking forward to the relief!

Wow, how big of an area can it clear? This has been the worst summer ever -- I feel like I live in a swamp. Before I go out first thing in the morning I have to slather on the repellent, then refresh it periodically throughout the day. Blech!

Please report on how well this works!

You would rather breathe in chemicals (many of whose health effects are unknown) than simply hang up netting?

What we spray into our atmosphere stays there!
