      I need something that works!!!! I can't dump another grand in my yard this year TRYING to get rid of them.
      find it at most feed stores plus it keeps mosquitoes away.

          Can't you put water in a shallow pan and place a light over it and drown them?

                    I 2nd the Demon WP. I get it at Katy Chemical on I-10 and Mason. They are a pool supply store. Mix 1 oz to gallon for inside and 2 oz gallon for outside. It is a white powder you mix with water no odor.

                    The dog we use Front Line once a month just put the drip on the fur on the back of their neck. Growing up we use to go to the sulfur pits in Damon and let the dogs swim in the water. Their coats would look better and no fleas.

                      I prefer liquid Dursban, I mix a little on the heavy side and you should be good to go. Spray early spring and again in middle of summer.

                        Just spread Sulfur in the yard, fleas and ticks hate it.

                          I always spread a little lime into the yard just after I mow the lawn. Was given this idea years ago and every year I do the same and no problems. Just make sure you dont spread too much as it will FRY your grass. " sprinkle" like a light dusting.

                            Malathion in an Ortho sprayer hooked up to the water hose. No more bugs period. You can get it at Lowes or H Depot. I used to use it for my plants but found after spraying the Greenhouses that nothing lives. Great stuff. Even kills wasps and yellow jackets. Found that out last week. You can get a quart to cover about 5000 sq/ft for about $8.
