Thermacell or one of those mosquitoes traps that go on a five gallon propane bottle. The first for north of I10 mosquitos the second for south of I10 mosquitos.

Cutter Backyard lawn spray works for a couple of weeks after spraying depending on how much rain there is also.

My neighbor's wife puts Rosemary cuttings around on their back porch. It seems to work pretty well.

I spray talstar with a backpack sprayer. Fogger would work even better.

I have been using Bifen IT mixed with water with great results. I spray my whole yard including grass, bushes and house eaves. I avoid flowers because it will harm bees. It takes care of mosquitos, red ants and spiders for up to 4 months.
I was told mosquitos spend the day on the underside of grass so a whole yard application works best.

Built a fan on wheels we roll out and we sit down wind (good for a group of people). It's a squirrel cage fan from a residential A/C blower and it has 3 speeds, 120 Volts. It's very quiet, very controllable, and no more mosquitoes. It's mounted on an old Gravely sulky with 16" diameter pneumatic tires.
We use it on high speed as a leaf blower on steroids.

This is what I do. A strong dose of Talstar at dark every quarter and I don’t have problems with them. I backup to a bayou so I Surat behind my fence as well and it does the job. I overspray i hate skeeters. I think I put out 2 acres worth last month lol

fans. lots of wind.

My personal house and I sat outside a lot? I would fog it. At our lake house we use fans and it works fine. I have put out candles and they’ve worked but you have to sit downwind

I spray Talstar once a quarter and don’t have issues. I turned my neighbor onto it as well which has really helped the cause.
