Argh. Damned mosquitos!

What do you guys use to control them? In the past, I've sprayed the yard with Permethrin (goes by several brand names, "Cutter Backyard Free", "Mosquito Control", etc). It works well for a couple weeks but I haven't seen it in any stores this summer (maybe it's been banned by the EPA?). So I'm curious what other folks are using to control mosquitos?

Make sure there is no standing water. Once I found all the places there really has not been much of a problem.

they are reallt bad at my parents house because of the mild winter and moist spring. that and they are surrounded by a woods so it is taking your life into your hands if you go outside

Move in with someone that they find extremely tasty. Hopefully they take the bait and are too full by the time they get to you.
