I can already barely go out on my back patio without getting eaten alive by mosquitoes.

What is the best solution?

Bifenthrin. 1oz per gallon. Once a month or every other month. Spray it on EVERYTHING within 100' of your patio, except flowering plants as it will kill bees. I'm talking house, doorways, window frames, soffit, lawn, shrubs, trees. Bonus is that you can cancel the pest control guy as there won't be a living bug on your property.

I have a bug zapper with olefrin trays. 2 acre size. I have to blow it clean every morning. Put it out in the yard away from the house.
I live on the lake.
I also spray onslaught. Keep the grass mowed. Blow leaves and burn them.
It’s that time of year.
