Need Help with Sprayer [View all]

One of our fellow gardeners mentioned Mosquito Barrier, so I ordered it. I've had it sitting around for a month or more and it hasn't been applied because of my inability to use a spray container.

I have no luck whatsoever with sprayers. I have a lot of these but I think my hand might get kind of tired, not to mention that it won't cover much of an area.



A couple years ago I went out and bought one of these, but I've never been able to figure out how to spray it. It seems to require way too much pumping for just a little output. I don't know if I'm using it wrong or if this is just the nature of the beast.



Hose-end sprayers are easier to use, but the mfr of this product doesn't recommend them for dispersing the Mosquito Barrier.

Any help or suggestions for me? If any of you have used this second type of sprayer, do you, too, find it labor-intensive for the amount of spray you're able to get from it?
