Default Re: My backyard is sad.

I also grow waterlilies and lotus in water containers. You just add a little piece of the mosquito dunk. The mosquitos still lay eggs in the water but the babies eat the dunk infused water and die. It doesn't seem to affect the dragonfly babies because we have tons of them around here and dragonflies will eat mosquitos in every stage of development. I think we probably have way fewer mosquitos than our neighbors. Fish will also eat mosquitos. I have a small pond that I keep my koi in without my water plants because the greedy guts fish eat up all my plants lol.
