Default Mossies in water feature

"Teddy" wrote in message

Hello All

I have just built a small water feature based in a 1m diameter pond. Works
fine and is very pretty but it has rapidly become a breeding ground for
mosquitos. Is there anything I can put in the water which will kill the
mossies?

Thanks

Ted

As Mike said, I'd be going for salt. Add and mix it 'till they die. Only
problem is that as the water evaporates you will be left with salt crystals.
Oh, and be careful or avoid it if you are running a pump, it could rust.
Could also try chlorine.
