[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1524555, member: 20599"] It seems to be very weather-dependent. But even when dry, we didn't get anywhere near 2-3 wks with mineral oil. We usually saw flies back within a few days! They also didn't scatter immediately like they do with diesel. Haven't noticed a stain (other than on clothes, but we always use it with grubby clothes on anyway). If you're getting 2-3 wks coverage with min oil, more power to you. Re the sprayer, we use a cheap-ish pump sprayer and (gently; not near eyes) release the pressure when done. I'm sure the sprayers would last longer if we washed them out as suggested above, but we usually have some solution left in it; and we get about 2 yrs out of a sprayer anyway... [/QUOTE]
