    Great Video with a reminder to protect our bees. I just ordered Talak 7.9 F Bifenthrin Insecticide Concentrate (3/4 Gallon) for 48.49 and TEKKO Pro 16oz for 45.00 after watching this video. I think the 7.9 is the new replacement.(I think)
    I've been using OneGuard Multi MOA Concentrate 1Quart for 114.96. The Tekko pro is not necessary with the OneGuard.
    Notes: Add a 1/2 gallon of water and pour in your mix while still pouring water in for a better even mixture. The insecticide might go directly to the sprayers hose in a heavily concentrated form leaving the rest of the mixture diluted. Wear the better mask and get sealed no fog goggles for extra safety.
    Use non ethanol gas. Your carburetor will thank you.
    Looking forward to posting the compared results!

It is true, you will save money and it will pay for itself in one season. I don't regret it, neither will those considering the DIY approach. Cheers!

      Droplets would be pretty big and would likely waste a bit. Big advantage of the mister is the droplet size and the power to deliver into a bush under the leaves where they hide in shade.

    Great video for this first timer. My bill from my mosquito control company is $386 for one season. My biggest concern is the safety of my dogs. They are Parson Russell terriers and enjoy munching on the wood mulch at the bottom of my plants/hedges. Are the products you recommend toxic after drying if consumed by pets? It appears the fogger doesn't allow much moisture to reach the ground and a fogger is what my commercial exterminator has been using the last two years and it doesn't seem to adversely effect my dogs. Please advise.

      The same products can ba applied using a hose end sprayer. Just add chemical to reservoir on hose end sprayer and set rate to 1 oz per gallon for most products. Of course you will want to confirm rates per product labels.
      The issue with hose end sprayer and even the garden sprayer is you will end up using a lot more chemical for same area as it delivers very large droplets. The foggers are going to be more effective in delivering the chemical into foliage that mosquitos hide in and won't waste chemicals with over applying.
      The fogger will pay for itself in long run in savings from excess spray and $ spent on chemicals.
