Is PermaCap CS good for outdoor mosquito control?

I am looking for a product to use for outdoor mosquito control. I want to apply it with a backpack powered blower. Is this a good product for that application, or do you suggest something else?

Answer:

Talstar is our most popular selling product for mosquito control.  It is a liquid concentrate that you mix with water and apply using a sprayer.  You will need about 1 oz of product for every 1,000 sq ft of space you need to treat. The key is to apply it to all shrubs, trees, and other foliage around the house or patio where you are trying to provide relief.  It should be directed not only on top of the leaves and plants, but on the underside of the leaves as well which is where the mosquitoes hang out.  Talstar should be applied every 30 days for optimum control.
