You just need to make sure they say 'contains petroleum distillates' to make sure they will mix with the kerosene. The pyrethrin is a fast knockdown; the permethrin is a persistent that will last up to 2 weeks.
This will kill bees.
Please don't be selfish if you have neighbors. Spraying chemicals impacts all wildlife in the area and as others have indicated the spray also travels with wind and water and will leech in to neighbors yards.
There are better ways that don't harm the wildlife. Flora and fauna. Thx
It's amazing we can hear you so clearly from up there on your high horse.
My yard is full of bees. Full of wildlife. Full of dozens of varieties of flora, dozens and dozens.
You know what keeps me from enjoying all of those wonderful things? Mosquitos.
You know what my yard isn't full of? Mosquitos.
What time of year are the mosquitos bad here? Is it just for a month or the entire summer? I moved here at the beginning of July and have not noticed a problem with them. Maybe growing up in Alaska was a blessing and now no other place can come close to the mosquito problems of the great north.

The entire summer. As soon as it warms up, they come out. Basically, if it feels warm/hot outside, they're coming for you. Obviously this varies by location (by the water, if your yard has standing water, etc), but generally that's it.

I haven't found the mosquitos to be that bad here. When I was in Boston and I would go hiking, I would have to spray for mosquitos constantly and would occasionally come back with my arms and legs completely red. Here, I can go outside and to Umstead and not have to worry about mosquitos. Maybe they just hate my Northern blood

Poor baby. You should threaten the ecosystem for your entire neighborhood then. We wouldn't want you to be uncomfortable. If only they made some other products you could use to keep them off you without needing to spray chemicals all over. Maybe someday.
Glad you can hear me. It's raining up here too. *spits*

Hahaha fitting, glad you came through, met expectations nicely.
While I am allergic to fallacious arguments, I'm not allergic to the bees, butterflies, and tons of flora in my apparently poisonous yard. Again, simply repeating my experiences for others who elect to utilize this service so they can make whatever decision they want, with facts and real world experience.
