What do y’all recommend to kill mosquitoes around the house and patio? They’re getting into the babies room and biting him at night.

Buddy of mine bought a backpack fogger after paying a mosquito guy to come fog for a few months. I am going to follow suit so I can go outside at dusk and not be eaten alive. This is what he has, I'll either get that or the Tomahawk fogger.

Demon WP works well. If the area is exposed you’ll probably need to apply more often.

I cover all concrete, siding, fencing, and structures with Talstar from a sprayer and it seems to work well. What’s the benefit of the fogger?

Put baby into net

I lived in northern Luzon, at some elevation. rainy and temperate except for the dry season.
Mosquitos thick as could be.
you sleep inside a net.

I’ve also had success with Bifen in a hose end strayer in the backyard. Make sure you spray into the bushes and trees as the mosquitoes like to hide in there until the sun goes down. Knocks them down for a week or so. I get it at Chastant Brothers in Lafayette, but you can order it from the link. A bottle lasts all season.

Eliminating standing water in your immediate vicinity, and clearing out debris and excess foliage will go a long way. This means gutters, old gardening pots, buckets, trash cans that accumulate water, standing water under raised houses, everything. It made a huge difference at my old house when I completed that exercise.
