"The system is typically programmed to mist at 1 a.m. and 5 a.m. when mosquitoes are most likely resting and hiding," Blasingame explained. "Mosquitoes are killed on contact and the population is reduced throughout the day."

The system also has an on-demand feature so homeowners can mist an entire area for parties or other functions.

"If a family is hosting a party, for example, they can use the on-demand feature to mist their yard for 20 seconds one hour prior to the event. This reduces the mosquito population and gives guests a pleasant outdoor experience," he added.
