I'm thinking about a sprayer for the tractor. In my research I stumbled across this www.mosquitobarrier.com - pretty much a "super" garlic oil. Amazingly a search on tbn turned up nothing. So the question is - does it work? Folks on lawnsite are reporting some success.

Mornin Hazmat,
Well, I dont have an answer but I read the info on the link and it certainly looks good. My wife is having a family reunion July 8th and Im thinking of giving it a try! We have had so much rain here that there is a bumper crop of mosquitoes this year, I cant see how you could go wrong for that price either :)

Let me know how it works out. I'm kind of surprised that no one here has tried it.

I ordered a Fimco 3pt sprayer today. Wifey issued a decree that all clover and dandylions shall be elminated:eek: - I happly obliged since it meant a new implement:cool: . I actually called a couple lawn care co's in the area to price treatment(s). All the recommended ones aren't taking on new customers. Big backlog due to all the rain this spring.

Once I get the sprayer set up, I'll probably try it myself.

"Super" Garlic Oil? THis should keep everything (and everyone) away! LOL kidding there.

Sounds like a good product, let us know how it does for you as I'm on 10 acres with partial woods. Skeeters aren't that bad as the house is about 200 ft away from the thick wood area, but when we go out later they can be, so wouldn't mind having something 'natural' to use.

How about a propane powered machine. I hear they actually work and are affordadble around $100-200. Runs off a 5 gallon propane tank.
