for a reasonable price? I just hooked up my TV back there and I'm getting ready to watch alot of football out there but the bugs during the night get really bad. Any suggestions?

Plant pots of catnip and marigolds. Natural mosquito repellant. And give some scenery to the patio

Spray Cutter Backyard Mosquito Spray all over your back yard to knock down the population, then use what has been recommended. The cutter stuff hooks up to your hose and works for about 5 weeks and is very effective.

Thermacell Lantern FTW

A few of these around your patio will do the trick!

Call the parish to come spray a few times.

Fans also work.

I have a ceiling fan out there and a little box fan. I may need to upgrade my fans.

I use the cutters backyard spray as well.. It works but it's not 100%. Using multiple products for different areas will help.

You can also go buy some malathion and be done with it... Will kill everything just have to be careful if you have pets an or animals in your backyard

I can vouch for these things. We used them all the time camping at Lake Eufaula, Ala. They work.
