I'm looking to minimize mosquitos for the kids in the rear yard

What's the cost of this system? Any other ways to eradicate them?

In BR

Thanks assholes

Terminex has got radio ads for skeeter eradication for your yard. They promise 90 some odd percent reduction. Have no idea on cost.

When can we (the us) start using those genetically modified mosquitoes that help kill off others? I hate them.

Spray systems for a whole yards are worthless.

Mosquito Magnet. Initial cost is $350. Annual supplies and propane about $150 per year.

Expect to replace the unit about every 2 years.

It works.

$2000-2500 for system install. $100-120 bimonthly for maintenance and tank refill.

Varies by area you want covered.

Terminix is about $60/month to come out once a month between March and October plus free visits for problem spots.

I looked into all of those and even knowing that I would have to replace the Mosquito Magnet every two years, it was still the best bet.

Our other house backed up to the Trace and this one backs up to the woods.
The MM does the job.

I install and maintain mosquito misting systems. Do you have a fence around your yard? Any other structures? Need a few more details to provide a rough estimate.

Yes, wood fence on the sides and iron along the pond

I have a huge 180+ year live oak in the back, don't know if that matters
