How to apply Mosquito Deleto
Each bottle will cover up to 5,000 sq. ft. Read full instructions and precautionary statements on the product label before use.
Select target zones
Choose a yard protection zone, the areas where your family spends the most time.
Spray the area
Spray in an up-and-down motion, moving quickly to cover the entire area. Here are some additional places to target specific pests:
- Mosquitoes: Spray shaded and damp areas where mosquitoes can breed, under decks, shrubs, bushes, and ground cover.
- Ticks: Spray shady areas where ticks can hide from direct sunlight, including woods, trees, and bushes. Focus on the area where the shade meets the lawn, spraying at least a 12-foot wide protective barrier.
- Fleas: Spray low, dark corners and wood piles where fleas may leave larvae, and spray several feet along the border between your lawn and any brushy, wooded areas.
Reapply as needed
Reinforce your new pest barrier 7 days after your first application. From then on, keep mosquitoes at bay by applying every 14 days in wetter climates, or every 28 days in warmer climates.

Natural pest reduction tactics
What’s that they say about an ounce of prevention? As part of our Integrated Pest Management approach, we always suggest natural habitat reduction as a first step to keep infestations from getting out of control:
- Mosquitoes: Drain standing water from containers like planters, cans, and gutters.
- Ticks: Keep your lawn well-maintained, including trimming bushes and tall grass.
- Fleas: Clear yard of debris, leaves, unwanted wood piles, and furniture.
Mosquito Deleto Application FAQs
When should I use Mosquito Deleto?
The best time to treat for mosquitoes, ticks, or fleas is when they’re active during the growing season and when you’re going to use your outdoor space. Treat protected zones and potential breeding areas throughout the yard as directed throughout the growing season.
How do I use this with other Sunday products? Why should I apply in this order?
Apply all Sunday liquid and lawn products before applying pest control. Start with liquid repellent, followed by home barriers, and apply dry bait last. Why? Liquid pest repellent and home barrier spray need to dry after application to be most effective, while our dry baits should not get wet. Avoid applying any liquid products or watering after application.
What if I apply out of order?
Wait until any other liquid products dry, then apply pest repellent. If dry pest bait was applied first, avoid bait-treated areas when spraying pest repellent or reapply bait if it gets wet. Regardless of the order applied, we recommend allowing pest control to dry for a few hours before doing anything else to the lawn. Otherwise, water (or other liquid products) can interfere with the pest control’s ability to repel properly.
