    It's been terribly wet here this year, so the bug problem in understandable. Looking for some kind of solution for the problem. Has anyone had any luck with insecticide applications or even foggers at their facility? Any help for relief is appreciated. High of 71 today with an overnight low of 51, this global warming is killing me. ;)

    We have a fogger for the mosquitos and it seems to work pretty good. Problem is you need to run it at dawn and dusk to be most effective. Other than that, it seems to knock them down pretty good in the morning.

    "Mosquito dunks" in burlap placed where they are dispursed anytime it rains. Keeps the larvae in check but doesn't get everything.

    Clint,
    Do you just drive down the middle of the fairway? Also, what kind of cost was a fogger and the product? Thanks

    Look in to Beecomist foggers. I had one in the Rio Grande Valley and it worked great. Battery operated and very quiet. It was around 5 grand back then but I did the whole community with it. They may have smaller versions.
