I had a mosquito mist system installed at the house a few weeks back, but never got a chance to take any pix of it. Basically, there's a 55 gallon drum of repellent/pesticide that sits by the pool equipment. The stuff is pyrethrum, which is made from chrysanthemum flowers. It mists for 1 minute at 5:30 am, and 1 minute at 5:30 pm. Result? No mosquitos! It is so nice to go out at any time and not get chewed up. We can leave the doors open as there aren't any flying critters anywhere. No need to get slathered in DEET anymore either...which was no help anyway when you were swimming in the pool.
