Re: Done!

There are some other options too.

* Plenty of pesticides will kill mosquito larvae, but also kill or harm beneficial creatures. I don't want that but YMMV.

* Mosquitoes prefer still water for reproduction. So a fountain, skimmer, filter pump, etc. will discourage or eliminate them.

* I also found this fun project for a Mosquito Bucket of Doom. Even if you can't find dunks, you can set up a bucket trap and simply pour out the water every few days into your garden. I have buckets, and a bunch of extra dunks, so I may try this.
