What can I use to spray or fog my backyard to keep flying bugs such as the flies and gnats and mosquitoes out of my backyard I've sprayed everything with a mix of ExciteR and Tastar P and it has done no good what is the best stuff to use Thanks
Neither ExciteR or Talstar are true repellents to keep insects away. The area will only be slightly repellent for maybe a day after an application with these. Talstar is designed more to provide a long residual to continue to kill those insects that contact a treated area. Mosquito Barrier is an option that can be repellent for up to 24 hours or up to 30 days.
