I'm being harassed by mosquitoes, how do i kill them all?
To my knowledge there's no stagnant water on my property, I've run water through all my ptraps, and I'm careful to not leave doors open. Yet at any given time there's at least 3 in my house. I can't sleep, i can't sit on the couch, i can't exist in the fear of being sucked dry.
The breaking point is when i watched my dog get bit on her head. I'm ready to do whatever it takes and then some. I will kill a man if it saves me from these demons. Any ideas?

Could a blue light trap work? Idk how mosquitoes work compared to flies.
I read somewhere that smelly cheese attracts the flying leeches. Maybe placing some bait, and swat them when they've fallen into your trap.
I better yet, zap them. Swatting mid-air is hard. I've begun catching them with my hands. Better success rate, as they then don't get blown out the way by the fly swatter's air current.
Ps. I've read about some people having invented an infrared light beam that will fry them mid air. Idk if it's safe, or even something to purchase - just throwing ideas out there.
Pps. If you wanna go totally bananas, you could paint your entire room white, and decorate like a minimalist. They'd have nowhere to hide.
Bug zappers dont work too well. A fan can be more effective in some cases depending on your circumstances.
Please elaborate.
Are you referring to the handheld zapper or the blue light one?
The handheld surely must work? You just need a small enough mesh to create a contact between the two iron "wires"
My experience with a number of bug zappers was that, while they did zap some number of mosquitos, this was not enough to prevent other mosquitos from biting us. On the other hand a good strong fan can act as an area denial defense. Not always easy/possible to have a good strong fan going, so YMMV.
