Answer 1

You also need to make sure you have no standing water for them to breed in. Like if it rains and you have abucket standing around for ages with stagnant water in it.

Spraying outdoors is hard because whatever you spray will be carried away on the wind and they might be breeding in next doors garden.

I have not found any wonderful answer so will be interested if you do. I have tried spraying all sorts and citronella candles etc. Nothing really works. It needs a concentrated effort in a whole neighbourhood to get rid of them.

Click onto this link for some ideas. I do not know these companies so try to find sprays at a local hardware store or gardening center. I'm sure nurseries will have it too.
