We live in Rockville and have an annual contract with Terminex. Last year we signed up for Terminex's natural mosquito spraying plan (the garlic oil). It worked well and didn't seem to affect the rabbits and birds in our yard so we did it again this year. However, they sprayed on Wednesday and my daughter was bitten badly up and down her legs yesterday, just from an hour or so in the backyard. Is anyone else who sprays having a similar problem? I'm trying to determine if it's due to all the rain or if the natural garlic spray is really ineffective this year. Thanks. |
Here is a clue, Einstein: the contracts you are signing with Terminix and the like confirm that they really did see you coming. Don't be so gullible, as to believe it does not strike you before anything else. In fact, buying those large bottles of poison are not helping you either. It actually does get into your system before anything else. But keep denying it. |
Lol what? |
If you are on meds, you need an adjustment. If you are not on meds, then you need to be. |
When I did the garlic spray myself, I found it worked well until August. Then it was almost like the mosquitoes were seeking thier revenge ![]() But the rain both washes away the spray and attracts mosquitoes. Make sure to check for any standing water. And maybe buy some garlic pellets to do another treatment on your own. |
NP here. You're incoherent. |
natural mosquito spray = oxymoron |
We get the regular non-natural spray and have for years from another company. We've had to have several resprays this year due to all the rain and getting bitten. Our company says it's happening a lot this year. |
^^^no issues in previous years. |
Op here. Thank you for the sane and coherent responses. 7:51, when you asked for resprays, did you have to wait a while for them to come back out? |
NP here. We use Connor's for the same service. When you call them to come back out, they are usually there withing 1-2 days. |
7:51 here. We use Mosquito Authority and they usually come out in a few days as well. |
The point is simple: spraying affects you, too. You may not like the delivery of the point. So what? |
People still pay for spraying? Ridiculous. |
I find it funny that OP is using the natural garlic spray (which is ineffective after a day or so) and got attacked. LOLz. BTW the real spray doesn't affect the bunnies or birds. |
