Has anyone used their pest control company to get rid of mosquitoes in their yard?

We use Aggieland Green. I called several companies, compared costs, guarantees, etc. Aggieland Green had best price and guarantee. We have found them to be very effective!

Howdy! We provide mosquito treatment service (as well as other lawn and landscape services). We get best results when there is adequate landscaping, shrubs, underbrush or trees for us to treat. As the mosquitoes rest in the foliage during the day or move through it during the night, they come in contact with the treatment. We treat every three weeks during the mosquito season (April through October). Check out our website for more info or to contact us! - Daniel Sherrod

Ecozapp is probably available.

I'm with StudioOne - not only will you end up killing the pesky mosquitoes, but all of your helpful spiders, bees, doodlebugs, etc. I've just resigned myself to pretty much cornering the market on Off! for a few months at this point.

My husband, kids, and grandkids are too allergic to mosquito spit to have them free-range in my yard.

I've used Aggieland Green. 1st treatment was June 1 and we noticed a drastic reduction, they claim after 2nd or third treatment 98% reduction. We shall see

I used a couple different pest control companies. All good folks, but I had very modest success. To be totally fair, I have a really tough mosquito problem.

I'm doing it myself this year and it's much more effective. Nothing special about doing it yourself, other than you can plan the timing and frequency to maximize impact. I use a Tomahawk mosquito fogger and bifenthrin from Tractor Supply. Wear a respirator, glasses, long sleeves/pants and be as conservative as you can. As someone mentioned, you can kill bees, spiders, etc.

The fogger I use:

The techniques used at Disneyworld work amazingly well. Many could work at your home without massive pesticides or fogging.

Walk softly and carry a big stick! Make sure the big stick makes big boom noises and flashy bright lights.

Tried this. Took care of the mosquitos, but now I have parades and fireworks in my backyard every night ...

So WDW gets rid of mosquitos and vampires at the same time. Nice 2 for 1.

We started hanging fly glue strips around. Putting them out of sight, even made a mobile station with 2X4 and plywood. All flying bugs around outside lights are gone. No more mosquitos at the front door.
