My pollinator garden and yard just got sprayed by a mosquito spray company.

I would write bad reviews on lots of websites.

Nobody wants a stupid service provider even if they don't care about your flowers

We use an organic mosquito spray and have tons of bees and butterflies in our yard! It’s been in the 40s overnight the past two days of course you’re not going to see those.

Frustrated!

Like what? I don't see any bees or butterflies any more. Too cold. Are you in south like FL or GA?

There are still lots of bees and pollinators around. Northern Va.

You're doing your best to address a genuine ecological crisis with what you have, and some careless, science-illiterate profit-seeker comes and reverses all your work.

I'd be LIVID and fight back!

Sigh.

When you spray insecticides, you don't selectively kill mosquitoes. You kill beneficial pollinators as well. Just because a spray is marketed as "organic" doesn't change that fundamental fact: it is designed to kill insects. And just because you still see bees and butterflies doesn't mean that you aren't poisoning them.

The most environmentally responsible and effective way to manage mosquitoes is by eliminating standing water (dump weekly) and use BG-GAT Traps or homemade "bucket of doom."

Cut it down and regrow next season.

Call the police non emergency number, maybe you can have them cited for trespassing.

Super frustrating. If it were me I’d call the owner of the company and ask that they make a donation to a local org supporting pollinators

Organic will still kill everything. What a moron.

Obviously, otherwise they wouldn't be using it and calling it insecticide.
