This post is brought to you by Terminix AllClear Mosquito Bait & Kill.
There aren’t many things that I really dislike about summer. Mosquitoes are one of them. I’ve always felt like a giant mosquito buffet. I step outside and it seems like every mosquito in the world finds me and starts feasting on my blog. Within no time I’m itching and have wheals (the bumps you get after a mosquito bite) everywhere.
The folks at Terminix informed me that “nearly 38% of parents would eat a mosquito if it meant they didn’t have to fight them off all summer long.” It sounds gross but if I knew it was safe I probably would do that if It meant not getting any mosquito bites all summer. For me the bites are just that unpleasant. For years people had to deal with mosquitoes. It’d be so much simpler if we could just eliminate them, don’t you think? Terminix AllClear Mosquito Bait & Kill is a new product who strives to do just that.
You’re probably wondering what Terminix AllClear Mosquito Bait & Kill is. Well, it’s a collaboration of science and nature. Terminix AllClear Mosquito Bait & Kill is the first and only ready-to-use formula incorporating the scientifically proven approach of Attractive Target Sugar Bait (ATSB). This product is designed to use the mosquito’s natural physiology against itself. I’ll explain.
More than 10 years of science says that sugar is a mosquito’s Achilles Heel, not the harmful chemicals many thought to be the best solution. It seems that mosquitoes need plant sugars to survive – to fly, to mate, and even to bite. With that in mind, a global team of scientists spent more than ten years honing the ingredients of a perfected sugar bait that targets mosquitoes specifically, yet is 100 percent non-toxic to people, pets, and the environment including non-target insects like bees and butterflies!
So basically, like desserts go right to my waistline, sugar goes right to work starting it job of killing the mosquito. ATSB is made from a proprietary blend of plant sugars and micro-encapsulated garlic. Because it’s made with these things instead of man-made chemicals, ATSB is totally safe for people, pets, and the environment. The only thing harmed by ATSB is mosquitoes. Only mosquitoes – not beneficial insects — find the sugar bait and the encapsulated garlic hidden within. The combination is lethal to both male and female mosquitoes. Within 48 hours of ingestion, both males and females stop biting, their breeding cycle is disrupted, and they begin to die. Within three weeks, mosquito populations as a whole collapse by more than 90 percent.
ATSB has been proven to collapse disease carrying mosquitoes by more than 90 percent. That is a huge number! And that’s not the only stat worth noticing. More than 21 scientific studies, an article in Malaria Journal and an upcoming study in Acta Tropica all agree that ATSB is a highly effective, very viable NON-TOXIC solution that has shown a 96% efficacy against the Aedes albopictus species, commonly known as the Asian tiger mosquito and known carrier of chikungunya and West Nile virus.

ATSB’s promising technology is for the first time available this spring direct-to-consumer in a ready-to-use backyard spray for homeowners called Terminix AllClear Bait & Kill. Simply apply Bait & Kill to green, non-flowering foliage or non-porous surfaces. Terminix AllClear Mosquito Bait & Kill is available for purchase at select Target and Lowes stores, and online at Amazon.com. It is sold as a twin pack of two 15 OZ cans for an MSRP of $12.99. 30 OZ protects 5,000 sq. ft.

Wow this sounds like a great product! I live in FL so I definitely need something to keep those pests away!!
We have a swing in our backyard. It is the place we love to sit in the evening. We are only there a few moments, and the mosquitos are around!
I’ve got to get some of this! We’ve got giant mutant mosquitoes down here!
My town is ground zero for EEE and West Nile Virus every year, so a good repellent is important.
The mosquitoes are horrible at my house this year. I definitely need to look into this! Thank you so much.
I can’t believe how bad mosquitoes are this year. I am glad there is a product that helps us to stay outside comfortably like this.
We have the worst problems with mosquitoes in our back yard. I’ve sprayed the lawn in the past, but it doesn’t always get rid of them. I just want to relax without being eaten by them!
I need to get some of this. We have had a terrible year for mosquitoes!
We had so much rain. Of course that makes for large amounts of those pesky things.
We need some of this for our house. The mosquitos have been crazy in our town this year.
Mosquitoes are one of those things that I never used to worry about but now they terrify me. They carry disease and they also leave those bumps all over us. The backyard is like a war zone between us and them!
Mosquitoes have been brutal this year, this looks like just the thing we need. For some reason they all choose me over everyone else around!!
I’m usually the one never bothered by them, but this year I am apparently catnip for mosquitos and bees, sounds like I need some Terminix AllClear Mosquito Bait & Kill myself! 😉
I hate mosquitos but I hate flies more. They buzz, annoy and miss every time I try to swat them.
i work at a garden center and that is where they are the worst!
Sweet blood or bad luck. Whatever it is, mosquitos adore me. I would love to get rid of them so I can enjoy summer nights without being eaten alive.
Sounds really great. Mosquitos are really bad where I live, thankfully we are moving but I think its all over this city. I need to check this stuff out.
Will have to stock up on this stuff. Heading to my parents place soon and their Mosquito’s are HORRIBLE. They live near water and I want to stay indoors when I go there, but I bet this would let me be outdoors.
The mosquitoes swarm all over our yard, and I attract them like crazy (and I react to the bites). I’d be one of those willing to eat a mosquito if it meant not having to get bit all all year!!
I find myself battling mosquitoes when I go visit my daughter who lives in New Jersey.
We could really use that around here. I live in the middle of a corn field and it gets so bad around here we have mini planes that fly around releasing mosquito repellent.
I need like a lifetime supply of this stuff! The mosquitoes are so bad in Florida!
I’m like a mosquito magnet when I go outside! I totally need some of this!
We could use this near the kids trampoline, where we get a lot of mosquitoes. It is terribly annoying.
I like that it’s 100% safe. I think I’ll enter, thanks for hosting.
I battle mosquitoes the most outside in the garden.
Oh I love that you can spray this outside and not on your skin. I need to try this!
Ugh! I hate mosquitoes too. This product sounds awesome. I really like that it’s non-toxic.
Mosquitos are such a pain when we’re just trying to enjoy our outdoor time. I’ll have to try this!
I battle mosquito the most outside in my back yard the most.
OH this is great, bugs drive me bonkers. I always want to find new products to use to fight them!
I hate Mosquitoes! I love hearing about any product that takes out these suckers!!
Wow this sounds like a great product. Mosquitos are so bad here or maybe it’s just me.. Thanks for sharing~
This is a great product. Mosquitos have been vicious this Summer. Glad to know this product exists to fight them.
I need to get this asap. The mosquitos are killing me, going to check this out.
I battle them in my backyard where I sit all the time, I have quit sitting out because of them
