First of all, no two yards are identical. In some cases your pest problem may be mosquitoes. In other applications you may be working against no see-ums, or applications may be for spider control, fly control, or some other nuisance pest.

Normally, most automatic applications should be set to spray in hours after dusk, and before dawn. For most flying biting insects, these are the high activity times, and it is the best time to spray for their elimination. Spiders do most of their hunting at night, and this is a great time for applying spray to spider habitats. In horse barns, flies can be a problem all day long, and time treatments throughout the day and evening may be appropriate for fly control.
