There are a bunch of mosquitos in my backyard. When it rains there are puddles made and they stay for anywhere from 3 to 6 days. This is a mosquito baby laying hotspot especially because i have a bunch of trees(big trees) and shade around there. There is no way i can get rid of these puddles (believe me ive tried). So my question is how do i get rid of all those mosquitos, is there somthing i can buy, and when it is dry out, what product is there to kill or remove these mosquitos from my backyard??

There are little cubes of organic material that will kill the larvae. They are made to go into roof gutters where water may accumulate. You can also toss them into your puddles so they can kill those mosquitoes. They are toxic to mosquitoes only. Lowe's sells them, for example.

OK, I know this sounds tacky but it wokrs, trust me.

Get the large zip lock bags, it doesnt matter if they are the seal kind or the zipper ones, fill them full of water.

Seal it, and then twist it at the top so that your can get a srting or rope whatever you have and hang them all around your house, try hanging them on your gutters, if you have them, if not then hang them on windows or somewhere not on the ground!!

And when you go outside put MEXICAN VANILLA EXTRACT, on your body where it is not covered, dont get it on your face, because it is mostly alcohol, and you dont want that near your eyes.

there is some kind of non toxic oil you can use in the puddles. it makes it so the mosqito larva cant breath and they die. not sure where you would get it though.

GO TO YOUR LOCAL HARDWARE OR FARM STORE AND GET AN ITEM CALLED PLUNK ITS, THEY LOOK LIKE MINI DONUTS AND YOU PUT THEM IN THE WATER TO KILL THE SKEETERS. ALSO GET SOME SPRAY CALLED YARD GUARD OR GET ANYTHING CITRONELLA TO PUT OUT UNTIL THEY ARE ALL GONE. HOPE THIS HELPS. ALSO TRY YOUR LOCAL STORE THAT SELLS POND STUFF THEY WILL HAVE SOMETHING FOR SURE.
