We were in Tampa today and dropped by an ACE Hardware that carries that Mississippi skeeter killer and I'll prolly be hangin' it tomorrow. If it don't work, I'm sendin' Lynn out to deal with ya'! (she handles my light duty work)

Follow the easy directions, and you will not be disappointed....i live in the skeeter hatchery of the south, and I can count on one hand, the skeeters I've killed around our house.
BTW, it takes a few days to start seeing the difference.

I hope so. They’re the worst this year than I can remember for quite a while. We like to sit out on the front porch in the evenings, but it’s been nearly impossible lately. Dang rat-bastard blood suckers! 😡
I ordered a kit myself the other day. Should be arriving in a couple of days.

Well, I got 'em hung out today. Now the waiting game starts ... to see if Muddy owes me $19.95 or not ....... PLUS TAX!

If it doesn’t work, I figure you to sell it on eBay for $100 easy.

Going to be picking mine up on our way through Minnesota tomorrow.
So Eddie, have you worked it out so that you’re getting a commission on the sales?

Picked up 3 of them just 4 hours ago. Rest assured they will be up ASAP once we get back home!
What we want to know is do they work? Not jumping in until I find out if they are better than a thermacell. And a thermacell is pretty dang ol badass.

I'm hoping for the best ... time will tell. We tried the Thermacell a while back and it seemed to work "okay". It worked best if I were in a deer stand or turkey hunting where I was in one spot and motionless for the most part. But when we'd be on the pool deck or front porch ... we'd normally be moving around (BBQ'ing and going from house to deck, etc) ..... it didn't work all that well. It also didn't work worth a squat if there was a breeze, but luckily, the breeze would also cut down on the number of mosquitoes anyway. The thing I like about this new deal is that it KILLS those little bastages! I'll take that over a repellent any day. But again, if you're hiking, camping or in a hunting stand, the Thermacell might be a better choice. The jury is still out, I'm waiting to see how this thing works. We've had so much rain lately, we really haven't spent much time outside.

What Thumper said on these vs. the ThermaCell.
I LOVE my ThermaCell when stationary, like in a blind or tree stand, but for full-yard elimination of those nasty skeeters, my fingers are crossed that Mudward's wonder tubes will do the trick. I deployed 3 of them in the yard late yesterday and will put one up at the campground tonight.
Time will tell...
you gotta watch those Mississippi state fans. Say what you want to about Arkansas but our coach has never castrated a bull on the practice field

Ha! Typical G/H. I was wondering what bull balls had to do with skeeters!
Day'um, QA, you gotta good memory.....Jackie Sherrill neutered that bull 26 years ago, in the middle of the football field, while his entire team watched....the incident got so much publicity that it's listed at the MS Sports Hall of Fame Complex, as one of the all-time favorite college football stories.....he did it to inspire his MS State players, before playing the #13 Longhorns.....it musta worked, too, they beat both the Longhorns and the Hogs that year, and finished with a 10-2 record, and a share of the SEC championship.
