To my knowledge there’s no stagnant water on my property, I’ve run water through all my ptraps, and I’m careful to not leave doors open. Yet at any given time there’s at least 3 in my house. I can’t sleep, i can’t sit on the couch, i can’t exist in the fear of being sucked dry.

The breaking point is when i watched my dog get bit on her head. I’m ready to do whatever it takes and then some. I will kill a man if it saves me from these demons. Any ideas?

    If you are in the woods, permitherin is the best option.

    If you are just sitting around the patio, just set up a fan.

    Dual wield those electric tennis rackets?

    If you’re talking about a particular area, using fans can help push mosquitoes away.

    If you’re mobile, use DEET on your skin and permethrin on your clothes and your dog’s fur.

    Imo the easiest option: fly screens everywhere. Especially in bedroom and keep this door closed so they won’t get in (in case they come through other doors)

    I no longer have issues with them and if I ever see one, I just use my electric fly swatter. I also can’t sleep when there’s one in the room.

    Fly screens are totally worth it. Self made might be cheaper, but I’m not cerrain since I didn’t do them myself.

      Don’t you want a dominant gene? Anyway, if you want to know more watch: Unnatural Selection, Episode 3. It’s on Netflix and worth a watch, it discusses gene drive in detail.

    Flamethrower…

    Now seriously, you could burn one of those cardboards that come with chicken eggs, i think other cardboards work but the egg one seems to be the most usefull for reppeling mosquitoes.

    So it sounds like you think your home is sealed already. I assume they’re just coming in when you do? You could spray near the doors maybe. Insecticide probably isn’t good for you but it’s worth considering living in a cloud of DEET if you’re that desperate.

    Only real solution is anti musquito net on windows, unless you are willing to move to island or antarctic
