There really is nothing available to homeowners that will eliminate the mosquitoes and no see-um because they fly and will come from neighboring yards. There are some yard sprays but they are only temporarily effective. I can only suggest you visit the following website with information about mosquito abatement: http://www.keysmosquito.org/mo...

With any luck at all there will be a similar program in your neighborhood and the county will be spraying soon. I hope so!
