I use Riptide 5.0% Pyrethrin ULV in my misting system and it works great for mosquitos.
Most misting/fogging concentrates on the market like Riptide 5.0% Pyrethrin ULV are contact kill insecticides and will not leave behind a residual to give a continuous kill. Fogging is mostly designed for the instant control and knock down of pests in the area and to kind of keep them away for a few hours. For continuous control you normally use products that are not applied with a fogger and that have a residual to give you control over several weeks as the mosquitoes land on the treated surfaces. We would suggest taking a look at our Mosquito Control Guide and clicking through the steps for treating and prevention and through the kits we offer to help get the best results.
