Hi Nick! Nice to have you here.

Thanks Jim. It's kinda sad for me, with my fish having died. I dunno
what
to do to keep my pond from turning into a mosquito farm..

==============================
A few dozen inexpensive rosy reds or goldfish should take care of that
problem.


My experience is that goldfish don't want to eat mosquito larvae if
there is anything else to eat. Don't know what area you live in but our
county provides free mosquitofish for anyone who asks.

=================================
I'm in middle TN. My experience is that anything with either goldfish or
rosy reds has been free of mosquito larvae. :-) YMMV.
