    These little 5 dollar traps from Wal-Mart are fly catching machines.I tried some from other stores with Not much luck but these work.

    I actually bought a bug zapper ,one you plug in.I paid 50 for it and it has a lure its like paste that you install on the bottom.So the lure and the bulb is supposed to attract them in to get zapped.With all that said I was still gett8ng bit last night so I'm still on the fence.Their is def some skeeters in there that it has killed but right now I wouldnt recommend it .I didn't research this product like I should have.Thier are s some good rappers out there.I would recommend the one that the QVC channel offers .I think its QVC channel.If you don't like that route I would try and do away with any standing water and I would poison my yard .I am anxious about a product called Round Up bug killer.Its same Round Up that makes weed killer.Couple options I would seriously try.

    Man now that I think about it I prob wouldn't use the round up to get rid of skeeters or depend on it primarily.I would like to see some more reviews.I would def use it for fleas and ticks.

    We actually use flea and tick pills. They are tremendous!! Not a single flea or tick.

    Go to the vet get the giant size, cut them into 3 equal pieces and you can dose 3 dogs. Not cheap but work better than any of the tricks and when all said and done that's what matters.

    I have actually done this lol.You are right ,its expensive but a quick and sure fire way to get the fleas gone.Round up claims it kills over 100 insects and pest and claims it will kill for 3 months.I like a nice healthy lawn so I'm thinking more than just fleas and ticks.

    Thermo-cell from WalMart.

    It gets expensive after a while adding the packs and the batteries.

    But it works. We have one on each end of the cabin and one in the middle. It lasts for four hours on a butane cartridge. The butane burns a filter. No smell. Just skeeter killing.

    My buddy uses one when bow hunting in September. They also come in a hand held version.

    Not one bite from a skeeter so far.It was in the sunlight when I turned it on at like 4:30 p.m.....So I figured sun and the light bulbs heat it up that lure real good and I can smell it.

    How big an area you keeping clear? I know they're rated by the 1/2 acre. I have 1 full acre I'm trying to keep in check.
