    Q
    Coverage area
    I have a open backyard with no fence and plan to install the unit on the along the back of the house and around the sides only. I was wondering if i would have the same protection if I had a fenced in yard.
    A
    The SolaMist Mosquito and Insect Misting System is designed to allow you to customize the area you want to create a bug free zone.  However, it should be set up around the area you are wanting to protect instead of the around the home. The unit has been supplied with 45 feet of tubing you should use a minimum of 15 nozzles per the manual

    Q
    How does the SolaMist Mosquito and Insect Misting System control insects? Immediate knock down or residual?
    Would you use this everyday to keep them at bay? Would it be just as good to use it a day or two before a party?
    A
    The SolaMist Mosquito and Insect Misting System should be used regularly to keep the population down. Most misting system solutions will not offer a residual only a knockdown. We do carry products that will offer a residual to the area using a sprayer. Please read our Mosquito Control Article for helpful tips on treatment.

    Q
    Will solar mist pollute vegetables?
    I've vegetable in the yard. Will it be safe for vegetables?.
    A
    We apologize but this is a new unit to our inventory and we are not sure of all the details for use with the product yet. The concentrate that comes with it says it is a completely natural spray for use in all outdoor areas with no hazard concerns. However before spraying over edibles we would suggest contacting the manufacturer Remington Solar at 214-257-8300

    Q
    Best misting solution for mosquitoes for a SolaMist Mosquito and Insect Misting System?
    I am trying to figure if there is a better product for the Solamist that won't clog the nozzles other than the one they provide. I live in south Florida and the spray goes around my back yard landscape/pool area I have children and small dogs.
    A

    Per the Solamist Mosquito and Insect Misting System Owners manual: You may also use Riptide, a pyrethrum-based product which is also effective at killing mosquitoes. Pyrethrum, a derivative of the chrysanthemum flower, also has very low toxicity. If you use your SolaMist infrequently, you may want to agitate the Riptide solution in your SolaMist reservoir with a clean stick occasionally.  

    The SolaMist Pro Concentrate does also have surfactants and other cleaners in the formula which will keep the nozzles clean whereas others do not, for this reason the manufacturer recommends it as the best product to use in their system.
