We live in a semi-rural area - houses 100 yards or so apart - and have a serious problems with mosquitos bedding down around the house in shrubs, etc. There's a row of holly next to the garage, for example, if you agitate it with a stick, HUNDREDS of mosquitos come pouring out. They're also collecting under our deck, and a couple of other places.
I tried spraying the holly very thoroughly, inside and out, with a general purpose insecticide from Home Depot - triazine, something like that, it was in a red plastic bottle. It had NO effect on the mosquitos. What can we spray these places with to kill them? How about malathion? And please, bunny-huggers and anti-pesticide loonies, don't bother..
