So damn many skeeters at my house I cant even cut the lawn.The minute I start to cut its like flies to poo.Never have had a problem in the ten years that i've been here.Wondering if i'm the only one being used for a target.

The worst ever.
Usually skeeters don't like my blood but this year they are horrible and I have even sprayed my yard three times but the problem with that is it seems to rain every other day so I don't get much affect out of the spray.

I agree this is one of the worst years. We were just about done with the skeeters until we got all this rain in July. 13.65" so far this month. Our county has a mosquito program and believe it or not, they were out here twice this week. Did make a dent in them but there still are plenty.

Get a Thermacell and use it. The greatest gadget for skeeters and black flies I've ever seen and it is not costly either.

For sure the worst I've ever seen mosquitos.
Even in the heat of the day - they're still out. And forget trying to run your dogs without a can of OFF with you. I just about freaked out the other night... litterally millions of them.
I hate it - c'mon cold weather..........

Hope that link works. If not, just log on to www.cabelas.com (http://www.cabelas.com) and then type in Thermacell in the Search.

The green unit is $21.99. Camo is more but does the same thing and mosquitoes don't seem to be able to tell the difference. :lol:
