    Q
    Can Mosquito Barrier be applied to fiberglass screens to repel "no-see-ums"?
    A

    Mosquito Barrier is not labeled for this type of application.  It is really meant for treating outdoors in trees, shrubs, grass, and other plants and flowers.  Using a product like Talstar P to treat around windows, doors, and around the perimeter of your home indoors and outdoors would be a better option. We would not recommend spraying the product directly on the screen.

    Q
    What is the best time of day to apply Mosquito Barrier?
    A

    You should apply Mosquito Barrier when mosquitoes are most active to kill those on contact and start to create the barrier to repel.  You should notice more mosquito activity in the morning, early afternoon and again after the sun goes down but not so much during the middle of the day. This is because the adult mosquitoes hide out during the heat of the day. They hide on the undersides of leaves on trees and bushes, in dense brush, tall grasses, under the overhangs on structures, under decks and in other moist shady areas. Concentrating your spray applications to these areas will help insure your application is effective as it is known that adult mosquitoes will land on these treated areas.

    Q
    Can Mosquito Barrier be mixed with an insecticide?
    A

    Since Mosquito Barrier is a contact kill insecticide and then a repellent after it dries, we do not usually recommend mixing this with another insecticide as they could compete with each other and hinder results.

    Q
    What is the mix rate for Mosquito Barrier in a Stihl power backpack mister/blower? What setting should be used?
    A

    The Mosquito Barrier label recommends using about 2.5 ounces of product per gallon of water for heavy infestations. For best results, make your application early in the morning or in the evening, when mosquitoes are most active. The metering rate when applying this product will be dependent upon how quickly you are walking during application. Unfortunately, we do not carry Stihl blowers so we cannot give you an exact answer.

    Q
    Will Mosquito Barrier have any effect on sandflies?
    A

    No, unfortunatly Mosquito Barrier is not labeled for sandflies and would not be an effective product to use in treating for that insect.  Try using Talstar or Onslaught as an alternative.

    Q
    Will the scent of Mosquito Barrier repel birds, hummingbirds etc?
    Our garden has many types of plants to attract the hummingbirds and butterflies but the mosquitoes are horrible. I need to go natural because we have dogs.

    Mosquito Barrier is an all natural, super strong, liquid garlic based formula that will keep pests like gnats, mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and ants out of your yard, golf courses, parks and fields. It does not contain chemicals so it is environmentally safe and safe for animals and humans. It does list on the label that it will repel dogs, butterflies, and songbirds.
