Your mosquito yard spray questions answered
Q: How effective is a natural mosquito spray at repelling mosquitoes?
A: Sunday's Mosquito Deleto is seriously effective. Cedar and lemongrass oils kill mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas on contact and keep repelling newcomers for up to 4 weeks in dry climates (about 2 weeks in rainier spots).
Q: What plant-based ingredients should I look for, and are they DEET-free?
A: Cedarwood oil (15%) and lemongrass oil (2%). Both are DEET-free and considered minimum-risk by the EPA due to low toxicity to mammals.
Q: Is it safe to use around kids, pets, and pollinators like bees and butterflies?
A: Keep kids and pets inside during application, then everyone can come back once it's dry. Avoid spraying flowering plants or anywhere bees and butterflies are active. When possible, select protected zones of your yard, versus blanket spraying, to reduce impacts to beneficial pollinators.
Q: Is this for yards, people, or both?
A: Yards only. Mosquito Deleto is designed for outdoor spaces like patios, decks, and lawns. Spray where your family actually hangs out, not yourself. Focus on shady, damp spots where mosquitoes like to lurk.
Q: Does it kill mosquitoes or just repel them, and how long does protection last?
A: Both. Cedar oil works on contact to clear out adults and larvae. Lemongrass oil repels newcomers. Protection lasts up to 4 weeks in dry climates, about 2 weeks in wetter regions.
Q: How much area does one bottle cover?
A: One 32 oz bottle covers up to 5,000 sq ft. You can get back to your yard as soon as the spray dries, usually a couple hours. Application takes about 10 minutes.
