I have a lower yard out in the back of my property behind my detached garage that my wife and I have had eyes on tackling for awhile. The grass was a mess, there were a ton of rocks and it wasn't fenced in when we moved in. We put up a fence last year, and this year I tilled and re-seeded the yard. There are still some weeds, but it looks much better (and I should be able to tackle the rest with some weed and feed this fall/next spring).
The only problem now is the bugs. Whenever we go down there to let the dogs run around, I get attacked by mosquitoes and these tiny gnats that just swirl around my head and follow me wherever I go. Bug spray is all well and good, but has never done much for me. Those citronella torches are OK, but is that the best method for keeping the bugs away? There has to be something better that we can do.
