Mosquito dunks
If you have a lovely garden with birdbaths or fountains, and you want to avoid mosquitoes from breeding in the standing water, then using mosquito dunks might be the solution for you. Using mosquito dunks will keep the area in you yard free of mosquitoes by killing them before they develop into adults.
The active ingredient in mosquito dunks is called BMI, which is a biological agent that attacks the digestive system of mosquito larvae. The larvacide is not harmful to humans or pets, and is also safe for your plants. Using dunks is an effective way to keep control over the mosquito population in your yard area.
If you want to use mosquito dunks in conjunction with a trap, you might consider using foggers on adult mosquitoes in your yard, or purchasing a mosquito trap that will attract mosquitoes without the use of harmful pesticides. You can also protect your family and pets with repellents to keep the insects from biting you. Dunks usually come in a package of 6 dunks, and each dunk is good for 30 days and covers an area of about 100 sq. ft. of water surface.
