I live in Houston, TX. Does it work for Mosquitoes. I sprayed on my front porch yesterday but found tons of Mosquitoes today flying around.

YES! We spray every three months and it keeps mosquitos, ants, spiders and roaches away. It say it kills everything but these are our problem pests. It's also safe for our dogs.

I have found that if you spray up high like on a fence etc, then it will cut down on mosquitoes. Those little buggers are a nuisance. I have also purchased a "citronella plant" and that also seems to help. Hope this helps!

Yes, Talstar Pro can be used for the control of mosquitoes if applied correctly, i.e., the lawn and surrounding vegetation. The Talstar label contains instructions for controlling mosquitoes. When I have a bad mosquito problem here in Florida I use a Burgess fogger with Black Flag fogging insecticide. Both of these products can be purchased through Amazon.

It will kill whatever it comes in contact with. However, the mosquitos from outside your spraying perimeter will just fly on over... same as the fogger, sure it kills everything it touches, but there's thousands more ready to move in. You can lower the nuisance level, but never eradicate it unless you live in a bubble.

I have no idea since I bought it specifically for stink bugs and used it to spray the entire outside of the house. It worked pretty good for the infestation of stink bugs after we doubled the recommended dose. As far as mosquitos are concerned, it should help kill them but I can't be sure.

We use it on our front porch and in our garage. They even have a weaker dose can that we use inside, over the front door. I wouldn't stand underneath it waiting for it to spray all the time but it is safe for casual contact and it has done a great job of controlling the flies in our garage and house, and on our front porch.

Yes, it is intended for southern or coastal areas. These mosquito's are are black with white stripes. The Octenol is used up north.

Unfortunately not, on both accounts. The sound waves travel via the electric lines in your house; (garage/out buildings, ect. are all connected, you only need one per the stated footage)...Sure wish it would work on mosquitoes tho. BTW...have had no spiders trying to come inside the house/garage/barn this spring! :)

I assume it does. We have lots of mosquitos in Florida, but they are not in the house. Hope this helps you.

James, If you meant to ask "will it work ON mosquitoes", the answer is definitely yes. In fact mosquitoes are listed on the label and I have used it for this pest many times with proven results. Cheers, Jonathan Customer Care U-Spray Bugspray

It helps to keep them mosquitos away for awhile...then they seem to get used to it. Just used it at a soccer game in a river town last week and my husband and I were much more comfortable than many others. It was better than not using anything. I will say that this works pretty well for gnats and smells good. Absorbine Jr. (muscle and joint topical liquid) works much better for mosquitos, but is stinky. You can find it in the OTC pharmacy department at WalMart or Walgreens.

The product is best used to spray it on surfaces like for spiders, ants etc. I am sure it will affect mosquitoes but only if you are able to blast them while they sit or are flying. I did not purchase it for mosquitoes and for me it would be too costly to use as an aerosol for flying bugs.

Area size is a way that other zappers mislead. The area that mosquitoes are drawn in from, is not necessarily the area kept free of them. The larger the fan, or more fans used, the larger the area. My porch is around 12' by 18', and when the mosquitoes were heavy, I had three Bug Fans going, and they all caught about the same amount overnight. I don't mind spending money on fans, if I want to sit outside. When they aren't heavy I only run one, to keep them from getting heavy later. Fans are cheap, and last almost forever. Being prepared for the seasonal onslaught only costs once, since everything you bought will be ready next year when they get heavy again. In my second year in using this, there are noticeably less bugs, of all kinds. Bugs get caught that I never knew were on my porch, but they were.

Answer - 2000 mosquitos that will be in your yard the next day, this product did not work in my yard in Austin TX.

From what I read on the manufacturer's site when I first purchased this is that it may harm them only if it is DIRECTLY sprayed on them. This is also why the recommend spraying early in the morning or late in the evening. When I spray, I actually walk backwards in hopes of disturbing anything in my path. I also use the end of the sprayer and shake it in bushes and plants to scare anything out, so as not to spray them directly. I use this about every two weeks on the perimeter of my yard and I honestly have fewer mosquito's and just as many bees and butterflies in my gardens/yard. I use specific plants to attract them as well. Hope this helps.

I use it to repel Mosquitos on my dogs. I spray them and the whole area around them and inside their dog house. Once it starts getting to high 80's we spray them every nite. They've never had fleas or ticks as long as we use it like I said.

Nope . The thing that causes it to loose effectiveness is a heavy rain. I've had this stuff last for several weeks to months and it still worked well, and that's saying something for Northwest Missouri in the summer . We put bells on the cows so we can tell them from the mosquitos . the stuff works EXTREMLEY well for us and we live next to a creek Roger

I think the best place is in the manufacturer's warehouse. I used it for a year and didn't trap any Mosquitos. Just a few moths.

I purchased 3 for our acreage, placed about 25 ft. from all sides of house. I too had an endless supply of mosquitos from a neighbors pond & creek bed. It seems to have cut them down considerably. We do go out with leaf blower at least once a week to blow off the collection that sticks to the zapper. Chickens eat the piles below it.

The "fog" usually clears an area of mosquitos for several hours OR days depending where you are. Here in the "bayou" nothing works for days unless we do it every day for several consecutive days. When they're really bad we may fog every day for 3 days.
