Help! Last year we kept them out with some sort of egg hatching preventer.
This year too late. (or too dumb) The small ponds (barrel halves) are full
of live larvae. I think dumping oil on top will pretty much ruin the
blooming lilies, so what to do? Immediately? Gotta kill 'em before the

Get a few inexpensive goldfish (?) for each container.

There are also small fish about the size of minnows that are called
(for obvious reasons) "mosquito fish". For small containers, these
might be more appropriate than goldfish.
