Sprayed around the entire perimeter of my house, shed, and other structures. Also sprayed where mosquitoes have been TERRIBLE each morning - the garage door. For some reason they've congregated on the door every night and when we open it to leave in the morning, they swarm all over the place and end up inside our cars and house from the brief moment the house door is open.

This morning I counted two mosquitoes --- TWO! I'd recommend this stuff to anyone who struggles with mosquitoes and other pests around the house. Very satisfied customer!

I need a decent sprayer, everyone I have bought craps out after a few uses and I recently just gave up. Any suggestions for a good one?

Same here. I've gone through what must be 10 sprayers in the last 7-10 years. I guess I need to just bite the bullet and buy a really good one.

How often do you have to spray it?

How does this compare to Talstar?

Do you rinse it out after each use? I have a backpack sprayer that's probably 5 years now and I haven't had any problems. After I roundup or bleach, I run a gallon of fresh water through it.

I do when I remember to but most of the time I forget.

Cyonora 9.7

Is this the same stuff but in a smaller bottle? Ingredients look the same.

If this stuff will put a dent in my mosquito population it'd be worth it to me try.

Has anyone used Cutter? For the simplicity of the type of sprayer I bought this and used it recently. So far it seems mosquitoes are down but not sure how long it'll last.

It's safe to say that Talstar is the official insecticide of the OB.

This shite works.

UPDATE:

Came home from work this evening to find lots of dead spiders around the outside of my home, throughout our living/entertaining space. I’m quite pleased so far with the results I’m getting with Lambdastar.

I’ve never used Talstar so I’m not sure how it compares. I was going to buy that but went with the Lambdastar due to its mosquito-killing/repellent abilities I read about.

We’ve had pretty good results with Suspend for overall big death. In and out of the house. Spiders and roaches for sure.

Interesting. I need to switch away from Bifenthrin for a few applications, and the permethrins usually smell terrible. Any odor to this stuff?

It’s almost odorless.
