- Here's the methods I use to deal with mosquitoes at Three Acre Paradise. They work great during normal times but can get overwhelmed during parts of the year when there is a lot of rain.

If you like the content I produce and would like to help support this channel there is one really easy way and it won't cost you anything. By using one of my Amazon links below any time you begin your shopping I will get a small referral reward even if you don't buy the product listed (when an item is purchased). These little bits add up and help me to buy more garden items to make more videos!
You can use my general amazon link (amzn.to/3qjBw6K) or check out one of the tools below. These are tools I use every day in my garden and highly recommend.
Tree saw - this Silky Professional F180 has a comfortable grip and cuts through branches with ease. I use this for things too large for the pruners. To date there is no rust on it, I put a loop of paracord through the hole in tha handle to make it easier to hang. Link: amzn.to/35Mb77Z
Pruners - The Felco F-2 Pruners are the choice of gardening experts everywhere. They seem to last forever, if you are a real heavy user you can buy replacement blades and make them like new again. Link: amzn.to/3qjzgMO
Snippers - For more precise work such as cutting delicate leaves off of new starts, these Corona stainless steel snippers work great. They have a long narrow blade to get into the tight spots on your seedlings or to prune smaller plants. Link: amzn.to/2TZmk2B
Trowel - Now this isn't really classified as a trowel but the Corona Scopp is my everyday all prupose tool that I probably use more than anything else (besides the pruners). This is not the best for digging in the soil but I don't really do much of that in my food forest. This is an excellent tool for potting, which I do a lot of. It holds a lot more than a traditional trowel and is a very well built tool. I've left it out in the rain many times and no rust. Link: amzn.to/3zRa5We
Knife - This Morakniv knife has held up well, it stays sharp and while the blade has lost its bright color it has not rusted. I use this for opening bags of soil and cutting ropes and twine. This knife is fairly inexpensive and includes a belt holster if you prefer to carry it that way. Link: amzn.to/3d9IPbD

This guy is every mosquitos worst nightmare.
That mosquito Magnet is impressive!
very impressive and informative. Thank you
The hero we all need
Great video thanks
Very cool machine that electric zapper/vacuum. Amy gets bit up by everything lol
Thanks for the video, I just saw a video that said Dawn dish water has no surface tension on top of the water. If this is true the female can't stand on the water to lay eggs which would break the life cycle. I haven't tested it but I am going to today.
Edit: Actually most shampoos should also work if the reason the man in the video gave that Dawn works. Anything with sodium laureth sulfate and sodium laurel sulfate in it.
Very Nice Video - Super informative!
Thanks for watching!
Your as serious as i am about this topic 🤨 .. thanks man
There should be no fluid in the coil from your last run. That's bad for the coil. when you're finished fogging you should let the fogger set untouched for a minute to 2 minutes and then turn it off. That extinguishes everything left in the coil. Better for your machine.
Thank you for your video. I would like to say something about the fogger. I have that exact same one, and have stopped using it because I realize that it kills everything, including spiders. I want to keep as many spiders as possible because they tend to set up their webs where ever mosquitoes hide.
Like the magnet thing.. i use 90% deet i get from a chemical supply company.. says it causes cancer but at least i wont itch while im in chemo..
I live on 12 acres and we have a dam and we've just had about 2 months worth of rain in 4 days and they are out of control
Nice!! Job
Thanks for the visit!
Guy is in a full out war against skeeters.
Mosquitos, fire ants, and torpedo grass are three things I could do without.
Does the fogger harm honey bees? I’d love to combat the mosquitoes but I really don’t want to negatively impact the bee population. 🍯 🐝
2 years later haha here in Florida people use a lemongrass spray on their lawns that works really well maybe look into that
I've seen the spray for personal use but not for the whole yard, I'd imagine that would be expensive for a large yard.
Once the bag it's completely full it will auto shut off to save batteries
should clean fuel lines also

Mosquito Magnets work. They are the real deal.
Don't use Thermacell's, they're toxic AF.
Where is the good old days when the bug truck went around the neighborhood at 3 in the morning?!
So your RAINBOW EUCALYPTUS tree is my spirit tree another for Mosquito is the Citranilla Eucalyptus
Try planing a few around the property to create a smelly barrier🤞🏽🤞🏻🤞🏿🤞🏿🤞🏻🤞🏽🤞🏽
Thanks, I looked it up and I'm going to plant a few if I can find some locally :)
how much did that cost and where do you buy it?
Which item, the mosquito magnet?
Octenol shop
Mosquito attractant for the best price
Which insecticide do you use with your fogger?
I use Bonide Mosquito Beater - amzn.to/3jTXJFN
@@GardeningSolutions guy reckons deet,is cancerous. look into it..
@@phantomwalker8251 no DEET in Bonide Mosquito Beater, unless I'm missing something. Here's the MSDS: files.plytix.com/api/v1.1/file/public_files/pim/private/assets/43/37/8d/5e/5e8d3743202d9eba64d3af60/texts/cd/67/49/60/604967cd5e92d6c3f4beffb8/sds551.pdf
I'm impressed by this bit of kit. Can you imagine if the majority of people owned one of these; we could eliminate the blood-suckers once and for all. It's also weirdly satisfying seeing them all dead in there
It would be nice if someone came up with a low cost version and if it could hook up to natural gas if available. Thanks for watching :)
sure thing
That is serious
10 hrs
I experience such schadenfreude from seeing all those dead mosquitos
Young Sheldon ??
I get hungry, yummy mosquitoes 😋
Does this thing work on gnats?
I don't know, don't have many gnats around here. A quick google search says it does.
The second item is a gimmick and does not do anything. If you bought one, you can get your money back.
A Mississippi-based company called AC2T, the inventors of the Spartan Mosquito repellent, agreed to a $3.6 million class-action settlement regarding false advertising claims.
Looks like an old outboard motor. Retro.
I'm pretty sure that if I had mosquitos around my property that bad, I would just move!
I'd have to move out of Florida :(
Those video about the magnet are always impressive for the bag of mosquitos, truth is this is accomplished only on insane zones, with a lot of days and so on. For that amount of money you can buy 10 electric zapper and make a 360° wall around you. The attractive for me is a scam, i have tried both attractive and it is ridicolous non working as expected.
I guess it depends on where you live. There is a lot of swampland near me so the mosquitoes are really bad. I've found that regular zappers kill everything but mosquitoes. The co2 from the mosquito magnet really does work, not sure how much the additional attractant matters.
@@GardeningSolutions I bought the magnet and after 70eur propane tank use i have collected like 50 mosquitos, changed position several times. One night zapper did more than magnet in a month
Hi, where can l buy this product please ?
If you are referring to the mosquito magnet here is a link to it: amzn.to/3kKk3ma
@@GardeningSolutions I saw on amazon, these propane based systems all have like, 100's of 1 star reviews and 3 star overal.. Have you noticed any mechanical issues with yours? Seems like an easily broken product
I honestly would’ve let that pile on fire, condemning it to hell
They don't burn very well. I just posted a Mosquito Magnet catch video where I tried: ruclips.net/video/cCHqVnMTF7o/видео.html
Dam, the ants gon be feasting 🐜🐜🐜🍴🍴🍴
but how does it work?
The propane is converted into carbon dioxide just like our breath that we exhale , when the mosquitoes get close to the cone where the additional attractant is they're sucked up into the catch bag and dry out and die after a few days.
Eradicator got terrible reviews elsewhere.
Yes, I removed their product link from the description.
Chicken fodder!
Didn't think of it at the time, they probably would have liked it :)
"I have a couple of sprays on my arms and my legs. I never use on my face though"
The man got himself a propane-fueled fumigator but is worried about DEET repellent on his face! This is a certified "american logic" moment! HAHAHAHA
Did you listen to my comment that they don't bother my face? Mosquitoes bite my arms and legs but seem to stay low, no logic other than that needed. It wasn't due to concern about DEET.
