DDT and other broad spectrum chemicals, and perhaps that propane magnet thing referred to are exactly what I warned against before. Once again: killing off the predators on mosquitos merely makes the problem worse.

There is a specific "spray" that can be sued. It is actually a mix of bacterial particles. I'm not sure if an individual can use it or if a commercial pesticide technician is needed. It targets only mosquitos - the bacteria feed on the larvae, so they die before they hatch and come after you. Not sure if it might provoke allergies or how spendy it is. You might start talking to your county or town pest control people and ask them about it.
