I have read many reviews on this. It does costs a lot of money,
but it gets rid of mosquitoes, gnats, fleas, ticks. You spray
it on your yard, bushes, etc...
Just wanted to get some input before I purchase this.
Thank you...

I use listerine in a spray bottle and have a citronella plant. Good Luck ! Make sure all your water around your house is emptied regularly - check bottoms of planters, bird baths and fish ponds for activity - A few more fish may be needed.
Good Luck

Do not eat anything 'sweet' like bananas. Then you sweat 'sweet' and the skitters love you for it.
Eat citrus - oranges, limes.
Rub the citrus skin on you as the darlings do not like the smell / taste of citrus...

I use the mosquito dunks, all you have to do is put it in the lake or bodies of water. They recommnend tying it to something so it does not float away.
I've used it on my property and the mosquitoes seem to have disappeared. I used to get lots of them, especially the big nasty ones. So far so good. I have no way of controlling the mosquitoes that infest the horses and other domesticated animals. Unless you put them in a screened confinement at night.
The fleas and ticks, you have to use a mixture of chemicals, some of them got immune to the permethrin, so you need to give them higher concentration of chemicals to be affected. The flea larvae eat organic materials such as leaves, branches, etc. They usually thrive in the dark, moist environment. Exposing the area to sun usually kills them unless they bury in the sand or soil to stay out of the sun. You also need to figure out when they hatch, and mature so you can hit them immediately with pesticide before they can such blood to produce eggs.

sun, I use tea tree oil. I take a 16 oz spray bottle and mix a little tea tree oil and add warm water till filled. This will keep mosquitoes and fleas off of you, and if spritzed on plants with common pests, (beetles etc) will run them off. I kept beetles off of my roses this year with it.

I use the dryer sheets after I use them and just stick them in my pockets If I have to go outside after dark in my yard. I also use "skin so Soft" watered down. Weekly I walk my property and make sure there are no standing water except in the canal. You must remember if you have a scent, you will attract bugs. That goes for soaps, perfume, after shave, washing powders, new clothes, etc. Try to stay away from so many pesticides.

Mosquito Barrier is costly and the same results as if you made your own. Main ingredient is garlic. If you have the money to spend on products already made, go ahead. I just prefer the homemade products best for yard and gardens.
=====================================
Garlic oil spray for mosquitos - last two weeks
Place 3 ounces of chopped and minced fresh garlic in a container. Add 2 tsp. of mineral oil to the garlic and seal the container. Allow the oil and garlic to set and mix for 24 hours.
Fill another container with 1 pint of water. Add 1/4 ounce of liquid soap (I prefer lemon scent) to the water in the container. Cover the container and shake to mix the water and soap thoroughly.
====================================
Hot Pepper Spray
Mix 1 cup water with 1/4 cup dish soap, three crushed garlic cloves & 2 tbsp of hot sauce.
Shake well and spray
====================================
If you use listerine as a spray, it will only last an hour before the listerine evaporates and needs to be reapplied. You mix it with equal parts listerine and water. This can be sprayed on your body, clothes and also outdoor furniture.
===================================
Mosquito Repellent Plants:
Mosquito repellent plants - citronella, horsemint (also known as beebalm), marigolds, Flossflowers (also known as Ageratum), catnip
====================================
Mosquito Dunk (Donuts) are VERY effective when thrown into pools of water around the home. If you have ponds, etc that you have no control over.
========================================
