Sprayer for 3 Pt Hitch
I waited till late summer and purchased a 25 gallon sprayer on clearance. The sprayer runs on 12 volt.
I welded a 3 point hich and wired a standard quick connect trailer light connection bought at wal mart. That is how I run the pump when needed to turn it on. If you would like I could post a picture showing the set up.

Sprayer for 3 Pt Hitch
Funchy, my house is sided with vertical cedar shiplap (very soft wood) over 1/2 inch plywood. I think the soft cedar is what these bees like. I have actually seen squirrel tracks on one side of my house. I have no signs of moisture or rot.
Sure MikeJD, a picture would be great. How far can you reach with with this sprayer. Could you hit the eaves at 2 stories? At 3 stories? The guy who sprayed the house for me couldn't hit the eaves at 3 stories (side of house where I am 2 stories up and basement exposed).

Sprayer for 3 Pt Hitch
NCrunch,
I have a 25 gallon electric sprayer which I listed a website in a earlier post on this same thread. The mfg. says it will spray 22' vertically and 33' horizontally. I would say that is just about what mine does. Depending on the actual height of your 2 to 3 stories it might reach, especially if you're standing and can reach a bit might get you to 30' or so...or stand on a ladder for that last little bit of height you may need. I've been impressed with my unit.

Sprayer for 3 Pt Hitch
Brian, I assume you bought one of the spot sprayers - which model? Would I need 25 gallons to go all the way around a large house or would a 15 gallon model suffice? I assume you got either the LG-29P,LG-25-P, or LG-25-SS since they have the 22/33 reach. What is the difference between the 25-P and the 25-SS models - their description is identical.

Joe,
I have the LG 25 SS, 25 gallon model. I'm not positive what the differences are, but as I remember I got the SS model because you can use Roundup in it. You really need a special nickel plated pump for Roundup use or it will eventually eat up a regular pump. Again, I'm not sure of the different designations, but I do know I got one that I could use Roundup in it.
I'm sure a 15 gallon sprayer would be sufficient for spraying a house for the reasons you need. I would guess a 15 gallon sprayer would spray about 2500 square feet of ground area judging how much area I can get out of my 25 gal. sprayer, which I would think would be more than enough to spray the eaves, etc. of a house.
Hope that helps,
Brian
