Summit Mosquito and Gnat Barrier Concentrate, manufactured by Summit Chemical, is a liquid concentrate used to control persistent outdoor pests in trees, shrubs, cool-season grasses, and warm-season grasses.

This product's main active ingredient, permethrin 2.5%, provides quick elimination of insects and long-lasting control, allowing you to enjoy outdoor areas surrounding your home without the disturbance of biting pests such as mosquitoes.

Summit Mosquito and Gnat Barrier Concentrate is a convenient and easy-to-use insecticide that can reduce the chances of encountering harmful diseases from pests such as deer ticks, which carry Lyme Disease.

Tools Needed

You will need a hose-end sprayer or handheld pump sprayer. A handheld pump sprayer is recommended to lessen drift during application and quickly treat cracks and crevices. For hose-end sprayer applications, you will need a spray container to attach to the garden hose.

Not for use in outdoor residential misting systems.

How to Use

Spraying Shrub

  • Step 1: Determine how much Summit Mosquito and Gnat Barrier Concentrate to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To find this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet and multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For tank sprayers, mix 1.28 oz. of Summit Mosquito and Gnat Barrier Concentrate per 1 gallon of water.
  • Step 2: Fill your handheld pump sprayer with half the water, add the measured amount of Summit Mosquito and Gnat Barrier, and pour in the remaining half of the water. Secure the lid to the spray tank and shake to ensure an even mixture.
  • Step 3: Adjust the spray tank nozzle to produce a fan-spray setting to avoid drift. Spray the top and bottom of the leaves until the point of runoff. When spraying outdoor building surfaces, do not go past 3 feet in height. Repeat applications as re-infestations occur.

Where to Use

Summit Mosquito and Gnat Barrier Concentrate is meant to treat lawns (containing Bent, Bermuda, bluegrass, dichondra, fescue, Irish moss, Merion, St. Augustine), trees and shrubs such as Arizona cypress, azalea, birch, non-bearing citrus, conifers, elm, English ivy, euonymus, weeping fig, fir, poinsettia, tulip poplar, rhododendron, Taxus, Cherry, Honeysuckle, Conifers, Douglas and Grand Firs, oak, pine, and around door and window frames, porches, screens, eaves, patios, garages, refuse dumps, and other areas where insects may land or congregate around the home.

Application is strictly prohibited in sewers, drains, or any other areas where drainage to sewers, storm drains, water bodies, or aquatic habitats can occur.

When to Use

Use when pest activity is seen on foliage or building surfaces. Pests are typically most active in the spring and summer months. Apply on calm, warm days in the early morning or evening when pest activity is low.

Avoid applications when rainfall is expected within the next 24 hours after spraying. 

Safety Information

Summit Mosquito and Gnat Barrier Concentrate are safe to use around children or pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing or spraying this product.

Do not allow pets, children, or adults to enter the treated area until sprays have dried.

Special Considerations

All outdoor applications must be limited to spot or crack and crevice treatments, except for treating soil or vegetation around structures, lawns, turf, and other vegetation.

If insect eggs have hatched or reinfestation occurs, wait about 14 days after the first application before spraying again.
