One is "Dipel". But it is effective only on leaf-eating caterpillars.
It is a bacterial biological control similar to "mosquito dunks" which
kills mosquito and certain fly larvae. I use both in the pond due to
a severe caterpillar attack on my water lilies that occured last year.
Dipel is sold at garden centers as the brand "Safer Caterpillar
Killer", but again, is effective only on caterpillars.

I have heard of an insecticide that would not harm fish. Does anyone know
what is safe to use around/in a pond?

I have an unknown type of bug that showed up late last year and is not back
with a vengeance. They are little blackish bugs that don't really seem to be
eating anything but they are everywhere. Please help!!!
