Is FenvaStar EcoCap very effective on backyard mosquito infestation?

Answer:

Fenvastar EcoCap is labeled to be broadcast on your lawn, shrubs, tree leaves and other listed areas for mosquito control. It is diluted 1 fl oz per gallon of water per 1,000 sq ft and you will apply monthly. The application of pesticide products in your mosquito management program will be most effective when existing conditions that are supporting the target population are eliminated. Exclusion and Source Reduction are both significant elements of total mosquito management.   Exclusion : Install tight-fitting wire screens that allow adequate air flow. Repair or replace torn or ill-fitted screens Screens used over flues and chimneys should be strong, corrosion-resistant, and removed when the fireplace is being used. Source Reduction (get rid of standing water!): Empty or discard all water-containing receptacles such as flowerpots, metal cans, barrels, or tires Fix leaky plumbing and air-conditioner overflow Prune or remove dense shrubbery or vines around the home which provide excellent breeding grounds Containers where water is stored (cesspools, septic tanks, rain barrels, etc) should be covered with tight fitting lids
