This garlic mixture is designed to coat leaves and grass, as well as ornamentals. When sprayed, Mosquito Barrier kills mosquitoes and repels ticks, fleas, and gnats. Afterwards, the coating left on the surfaces of the sprayed plants acts as a barrier against those same insects. | | | Features: | |

• Kills mosquitoes. Repels ticks, fleas, gnats, and other soft-bodied insects.
• Creates a long-lasting barrier on sprayed surfaces.
• Not harmful to plants, humans, pets, and bees.

 It Works!May 23, 2006
By Elliot
I live in California, and I know that mosquitos are not as bad here as they are in much of the country. That being said, I had basically quit using my patio because I was tired of bites and risk of West Nile. I also dislike using nasty chemicals that eradicate all life from my yard. I sprayed my yard (10K sqft) with Mosquito Barrier two weeks ago, and have not seen a single mosquito since. I'm sold!

 no impact!Nov 02, 2006
By S. Perez
We have a pretty bad mosquito problem in our yard in the summer - no standing water in our yard but there is a water inlet about 3 blocks away which has tide water, I assume they must come from there. I used a pump sprayer and followed directions on the bottle. It was quite humid when I did the first treatment and so I repeated it just a few days after the first trial - I am sorry to say - I saw absolutely no visible improvement of the mosquito problem in our yard. Maybe it works on SOME types of mosquitos, we have the "tiger" type, black/white stripes which bite at any time of the day, not just at dusk and again, this product did not work for us at all.

Doubling the dose seems to help against Asian TigerSep 01, 2009
By Bill
"Enemy of All Mosquitoes"
From the other reviews and one reviewer's comment, I concluded that the difference between the west coast success and east coast failure was the Asian Tiger mosquito. So I doubled the concentration to 6 oz. per gallon and sprayed everywhere I could. My dog usually attracts a cloud of mosquitoes whenever he is outside. After the spraying he only attracted a couple and none the next day. I see an occasional mosquito wandering through the yard, but it doesn't come after me. She seems lost. There are still mosquitoes in my driveway and in the woods behind my house where I haven't sprayed, but I plan to spray those areas next. Now that I know that Mosquito Barrier will work, I plan to use as needed, and heavily, until the season is over (first freeze). My neighbors have noticed the smell but they like it.

Works greatMay 14, 2007
By Glenn R. Lockett
I mixed and sprayed this product 2 weeks ago, following the instructions. The first couple of days I would get a whiff of garlic in the yard, but it soon disippated. As of tonight the mosquitos still are not bothering me, and they used to LOVE me. I could barely go in the yard for 5 minutes with the dogs and I'd come back with at least 3 or 4 bites. If you're having mosquito problems, I'd definitely give this a try.

If used properly-- it is great!!!Mar 17, 2011
By tootsmomtexas
I used a mosquito service last year who sprayed for me, and she made the mistake of showing me what she sprayed and how she did it...now I am doing it myself*!!! If you start early in the spring- like March for here in Texas- you can actually prevent the problem before it starts. It is much harder to control once you already have a problem.
Follow the directions on the package, also adding in the vegetable oil (to kill larvae) and I add about 15-20 drop of peppermint essential oil. It is also an insect repellent and hides the smell of the garlic, which can be strong initially.
Remember that mosquitoes lay their eggs not just in damp areas, but in soil, those deep dry cracks we sometimes get in our yard, gutters where leaves pile up, inside tight-leaved shrubs like boxwoods, etc. Try and spray very liberally around those areas and do it when it is sunny so that it can dry effectively and make sure to repeat if it rains within 48 hours of spraying. Yes, it takes a little time, but it is worth it for me to have a nice yard where our family can hang out.
Also remember that a mosquito will travel a VERY far way- like a mile- for a meal, so you are never going to eliminate every mosquito, but this product is effective if used properly.
*I use in conjunction with Dr. T's granules- one week I spray and one week I spread granules.
