    Its better to care of both Environmental Corrective actions as well as a Pest Control action. Drill holes in your old tires, or discard them. Get rid of moisture contributors. Apply mineral oil to overflow basins under flower pots. I could go on but have no time right now.

  • @LouIsFatAndSassy
    @LouIsFatAndSassy 7 років тому +4

    Great video and website. How long after my initial spray should it take before I see a decrease in population (I have no standing water). E.g., if I spray in the morning, would I be able to hang on the porch that night and see a decrease, or would it take a week to notice a difference? Also, is Talstar P dangerous to bees or is there a time of day that I should spray bushes (non-flowering) to minimize negative impact on bees?

    • @domyown
      @domyown  7 років тому

      Great questions! This totally depends on which products you use for mosquito control. If you use Talstar alone, it will take a few days to see results. If you use Talstar mixed with a pyrethrin product such as Exciter, you will see same day results as the Exciter makes your solution a fast knockdown and the Talstar gives you a long lasting residual. Both Talstar and Exciter can be dangerous to bees. You should not spray any as where bees are actively foraging and you should always avoid spraying blooms on plants to minimize impact on bees.

    • @domyown
      @domyown  4 роки тому

      You really do not need to spray on open sunny areas like mowed grass for mosquitoes. They are not going to hang out in the sun in the middle of the day, and just because they may fly over that area does not mean they are landing there. With residual products, you want to concentrate on areas where the mosquitoes would actually land so that you can get the insecticide in contact with the insect. Since this is always a challenge with flying insects, this is why the non-chemical control methods are just as important for managing mosquitoes.

    • @domyown
      @domyown  5 років тому

      If you have more frequent rainfall and heavier storms, then of course it’s more difficult to rely on residual sprays alone for your mosquito control. This is part of the reason we recommend that you inspect for standing water sites so that they can be eliminated or treated with a larvicide as part of your overall mosquito management. You can use a residual insecticide such as Talstar P up to once a month for mosquito treatment, but you could use a shorter-acting or natural product between applications, if needed. A natural spray like EcoVia EC can be a great option if you are needing to treat more than once a month for mosquitoes: www.domyown.com/ecovia-ec-p-9660.html

      For mosquitoes key is to apply to the underside of leaves on trees/bushes which is there the adults lay during the day, as well as shady areas. You would not treat entire areas of the lawn that are in full sun as it is not habitable for them there.

    • @domyown
      @domyown  8 років тому +2

      Insecticide granules do not work for mosquito control. Mosquitoes must land on treated surfaces. Since most mosquitoes will land and rest on raised areas like trees, bushes, overhangs, etc they will never contact the areas treated with granules. We recommend sticking with a liquid insecticide that can be sprayed on the areas highlighted in the video.

These do all result from moisture issues, though, so identifying and correcting excess moisture issues on your property - just like you would need to do for mosquitoes - is going to be key in managing many other small flying insects, too.

    • @domyown
      @domyown  4 роки тому

      Typically with swimming pools, as long as they are in good working order, and the filtration system is working, it will create moving waters, which are not conducive to mosquitoes laying eggs. The movement of the water would discourage them from landing in that water, and it would prevent any eggs laid from surviving.

    When is the mosquito seasons?

    • @domyown
      @domyown  4 роки тому

      When exactly mosquitoes are active will vary depending on where you live and the temperatures from day to day. Mosquitoes will be most active when air temperatures are between about 60 and 85 degrees F. Under 50 degrees you will rarely see any biting mosquitoes since they are cold-blooded. You should always aim to eliminate or treat standing water since mosquitoes can still breed in any standing water (above freezing).

    • @domyown
      @domyown  5 років тому

      A bee and a mosquito are bot insects, so keep in mind that a product that will kill one kind of insect will kill others, too. We always recommend spraying in the morning or evening when pollinators are less active, and that you avoid spraying pesticides on flowering plants to reduce risk to beneficial insects. You may also consider a repellent such as Mosquito Barrier which would be only a repellent for mosquitoes after it dries: www.domyown.com/mosquito-barrier-p-3893.html
      Be sure to check out our Inspection Guide, too, for ways to eliminate breeding sites without using chemicals: www.domyown.com/mosquito-inspection-guide-a-492.html

      Most people treat for mosquitoes once a month in the summer. Keep in mind that some encapsulated insecticides such as Suspend Polyzone will hold up better to weather like sunlight and rainfall, and all-natural products will wash away more easily in rain. Be sure to review our Mosquito Prevention Guide for non-chemical steps to help you get the most out of your treatments!

If you are looking for something to use around natural bodies of water for mosquito control, then we recommend Altosid Pro-G larvicide which lasts for 30 days and is safe to use around aquatic life. Essentria IC3 insecticide is a natural spray that is safe to use on turf and ornamental plants around aquatic areas as well to help reduce adult mosquito populations. As always, please feel free to contact us if you have any questions!

The pond level varies, but its about 8 feet deep when full. The heavily wooded lot next door is vacant and about 18" deep in pine straw and ivy growth. The deer/yellow flies seem to be worst on the side of the house next to the vacant lot. The front of the house is on a bluff which is quite dry, except the Gulf of Mexico 150 feet away.

    • @domyown
      @domyown  7 років тому +1

      +DukeLaCrosse20 Thank you for the detailed information you provided! We recommend using a product like Essentria IC3. This product can be safely used near your pond and is labeled for deer fly control. The product should be applied to shrubbery, trees, and other foliage on your property, focusing on areas where you see the most activity. We do recommend using a mist blower to make sure the application can permeate through dense foliage. Typically deer fly season starts in March and may run through October or November in the south. During these times you will need to repeat treatments at least once a month. It is important to keep in mind that because of your pond (most likely where the deer flies are laying their eggs) you will only be able to decrease the populations, you will not be eliminating them all together. Please let us know if you have any questions. We are always happy to help!

      You should always read and follow the product labels of anything you are using prior to application. You can also view the SDS for products we sell online anytime, too. The Safety Data Sheet provides more specific and standardized information regarding toxicity of registered pesticides. For most pesticides you will need to wear long sleeves, long pants, socks and shoes, and chemical resistant gloves for mixing and spraying, and pets and people other than the applicator should stay out of the treatment area until the application is complete and dry. Please let us know if you have more specific questions.
