Most of us are familiar with dumping standing water to control mosquitoes. But, what about hidden water sources on your property or other sources of water that can't be dumped? Sources like a drainage system can help thousands of mosquitoes to thrive on our properties, often unnoticed. 

The best solution is to fix the system so it drains properly and doesn't collect the water. If that can't be achieved, then using Mosquito Dunks ® to kill mosquito larvae is the next best solution. Mosquito Dunks ® contain a naturally occurring bacteria that affects mosquitoes but doesn't affect birds, animals or other aquatic insects. It's the perfect remedy for smaller amounts of water that isn't easily removed from its container. Mosquito Dunks ® work well in horse troughs, bird baths, small ponds or fountains, and home drainage systems, too. Always follow the instructions, and if a smaller amount is needed, simply place the the dunk in a bag and crush it using a hammer. Then you'll be able to spread the amount needed.
