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. I was always amazed with my little 300g pond has 650 g/h pump, number of gold fish and different type of "aquarium" fish and their various fry along with the invertebrate type predators and would still see the occasional adult mosquito emerge from pupation. Definitely not problem numbers, just the occasional to complete the aqua micro environment out there. Lar |
