          I don't think that it worked at all. I feel like it attracted more mosquitoes to my backyard.

              This product did not work any better than a fogging spray and cost a lot more. It did not last 3 weeks as the packaging said it would. And the smell lingered until it rained and then there was no benefit from it.

                Comments about Mosquito Beater:

                This product is fantastic. Before I spread the Mosquito Beater on my lawn, we would be attacked by mosquitos while in the yard. Spending time outside was intolerable. After spreading the Mosquito Beater, it's a joy to be outside - no mosquitos to worry about.
                My one con for the product is that the granule is too fine and hence hard to spread. Last year it was more of a pellet form and very easy to spread.

                  Comments about Mosquito Beater:

                  I use a spreader around the deck area and it creates a buffer zone for mosquito control, which is my main concern. It allows us to use the deck during the day free from mosquito bites.

                  One container does the trick and it lasts about 3 weeks as advertised. It is safe for children and pets, which is a big plus.

                    Comments about Mosquito Beater:

                    We have a terrible mosquito problem in our yard. It is difficult to stay outside for long periods of time without getting bites all over. Our children are allergic to the bites and break out in huge, itchy and painful welts. We have definitely seen some improvement with the use of Mosquito Beater. It smells good and I feel comfortable applying it to my lawn since it is made with natural ingredients (geranium oil, cedar oil, lemongrass oil, garlic, citronella oil and ground corn. The package recommends a new application every two to three weeks, however, we did it every week for the first few weeks. I feel it is a bit on the expensive side since you need to use it so frequently but it does work.

                    Not very effective- the mosquito problem is very bad and I liked the fact that it was organic and non-toxic to pets and kids. After using 2 applications I still could not let my grandkids outside - it made no noticeable difference.

                      There is a lot less then it use to be. I feel if it was a full 5lbs like it use to be it would have been better. I had to use two of them and it still did not work as good as the 5lb bottles. Fill the bottle up.

                      Just sprinkle this around the patio or lawn area and remain vertually bug free all evening.
