Mosquito Barrier Liquid Garlic Spray Concentrate for Mosquitoes, 32 oz | Powerful garlic mosquito repellent for large yards, landscapes, ponds & perimeters. Safe around pets, birds & fish

I got this because temrinix said that their mosquito treatment only kills mosquitoes. It won’t repel them for the party I was planning. The tech recommended this stuff. He said he used it in his own backyard. Sprayed it about 3 hours before a backyard party (you will need a sprayer of some sort). Smelled like garlic for about 20 min but it quickly went away. No mosquitoes or bugs all evening (I did have 4 citronella tiki torches burning for extra protection). Would definitely recommend. 5 stars. Great product.

I was unsure with a mix of reviews online and skeptical of the idea that one natural product would work. But it was reasonably priced and believed it wouldn’t hurt our dog, plants, fireflies and other critters we love. And if it works against Dracula it’s gotta work. I bought the smaller bottle and a pump pressure spray separately for $12. It’s been very hot and muggy for days and days to come, so it was the perfect time to apply. The product comes in a nice sturdy commercial bottle, and is inside a ziplock type bag. That’s smart, as any drop or leak will leave a stain of odor, but I was glad to see and smell that the product had muscle to it. Definitely open and mix outdoors, The garlic smell is huge and lingers in your head,and you may think the house will smell like it forever, but it goes away before you know it. Mixed about 3-4 shots of the garlic juice with a gallon of water in the sprayer applicator. (By the way, taking the sprayer apart to clean is essential, but it’s the most garlic intense moments of all. If inside, run the water slowly washing the outside of the sprayer, then fill it up and let it spray out water until empty.) I was ready to apply, so I did. I had the sprayer set to a strong mist, not too misty or wind will just take it away. I just kept it on spray as I walked around the perimeter of backyard. It’s a mix of bushes, flowers and tall plants. Spray from the ground up otherwise you’ll be under a mist of garlic. And the key is to push the applicator through the leaves, turning it to coat 360 around the leaves. It actually starts to be quite fun. I did my entire backyard and went ahead and did the front set of bushes too. I did this at 6:30 pm while mosquitos were out. You want them there to see and be seen by the sprayer. It certainly agitated them, as they came out from everywhere. Wear long stuff at least the first time. Once done with the front, I walked to backyard. It really smelled like intense garlic, neighbors must have thought I was cooking something horrible, but who cares, this benefits them too. After about 1 hour the odor started to dissipate,the mosquitos were less dense but I was still unsure. Next day I got up when mosquitos would be up, around 6am and there was no smell of garlic, trees and grass were alive and well and the dog was clueless. But, mosquitos were there. Product says to do it 2-3 times. I did it again, much faster. Mosquitos agitated but not as many. Good sign. This time I was done in 15 minutes, and kinda fun, familiar smell. Came back from work, my wife was in the backyard with the dog. Both enjoying the time, no garlic smell and she says she hasn’t been bitten at all. I do see a few as I walk around, but am super impressed. I saw it worked, so I was inspired to do another round. Being an expert applicator now, I did it while my wife grilled. Even asked if the steak needed a spritz of garlic...I thought it was funny. Applied, done, ready for dinner. Ate inside. Had dessert in the backyard, no garlic smell, no citronella candles, and zero mosquitos. Fireflies? Yes, plenty. It works for my yard I walk the dog around the block and there are lots of mosquitos, but we come back to our yard and it’s mosquito free. I’m writing this from my backyard, its been a week and still good, I’m sure I’ll apply again in a week or two, as I start to miss the garlic mist.

I love the garlic scent and it does work as described however, it is better for "spot-checks" in areas where animals will be getting into. Once the spray dissipates it's effectiveness is reduced. It works great for my purposes: to get out of my house in southeast Texas without being attacked by "them dam swamp eagles", or letting any (more) in the house.

I tell everyone about this stuff! If you mosquitoes and don’t want to spray chemicals around your property then this is for you. It works really well and keeps the mosquitoes at bay. One caution though…mosquitoes seem to know what it is so they’re particularly nasty while you spray it. I suggest a head net while spraying then just enjoy your mosquito-free (or at least greatly reduced) yard.

2000 sqft backyard in Houston. Used 4 gallons of spray with max suggested concentration. Backyard now smells like a pizzeria. 8 hours later I was out for 5 minutes and gotten bitten 5 times. No impact on the mosquito population.

We actually have a mosquito trap that we are currently using to monitor the incidence of mosquitoes in our property. I started spraying this product immediately after last week's check of the trap so that any differences would be noticed in today's reading (we do weekly readings of the mossies trapped). I think there are less mosquitoes since I have been spraying, this is my own impression. This week I sprayed three times, always after a rain to touch up. However, the incidence of mosquitoes trapped is exactly the same as last week, so no change. The smell of the product is not so bad, and does not linger for long. If you don't like garlic, I suppose it would be a sacrifice. If you don't mind it, it smells like a raw garlic focaccia during spraying, but after a short while you have to make an effort to smell it. I will continue using it, because although the trap is catching the same amount of mosquitoes, I really think I see less when I walk outside. This product does not represent a significant investment, so I would suggest trying it before discarding the possibility, especially if you are as desperate as I am.

It seems to be working. I spray around the perimeter of my small yard and have not seen any mosquitoes.

I've been dealing with mosquitos in my backyard and frontyard but having dogs, been looking for something pet friendly and cost-effective. With a sprayer, sprayed the front bushes/plants and instantly saw mosquitos fly away. Some even flew towards me but the spray didn't kill them, more just annoyed them away. Sadly, even after multiple applications, the mosquitos are still around. So it might work but is very short-lived: Sprayed the front every 2-3 days and mosquitos still hanging around, even going with a stronger dilution.

I’m not trying to ‘mess with our ecosystem’ by eliminating all the bugs but I do like to ride my horse without being swarmed by mosquitoes. I sprayed this stuff in my grass riding area and it WORKS incredible. Me and my horse are able to enjoy a bug free ride. I did not spray the rest of my yard and there’s lots of mosquitos. It smells faintly of garlic. Doesn’t bother me at all. EXCELLENT product.

Complete garbage. Don't waste your time and money. I used it in the morning and ithe weather stayed dry and sunny all day, come time for the party mosquitos were out in full force. This stuff doesn't work at all

Its potent and does the trick, I continue to purchase this

It didn’t eliminate the mosquitoes but drastically reduced the number in the area. Will definitely get it again

Seemed to work for a day or two. Better off getting Pounce if you're wanting something more effective and longer lasting. This is good if you want something more environmentally friendly and don't have a large area to treat. If just a backyard it probably is more worth it, but for the cost and effectiveness it's not good for an acreage.
