Sorry @Spitfire6532 !
Good luck with that! I've got a mosquito breeding ground behind my house (aka retention pond). This year the little bastards and no-see-ums are horrible, and we haven't even seen temps over 75 degrees consistently yet.....Sorry I came home yesterday after working late and got distracted by swarms of lanternfly nymphs all over my garden. I was out for over an hour spraying everything with neem oil.
Not much has happened yet.
Let's just put this in 2nd gear. @RBHeadge PE I vote for @djl PE. Subject to change.
No@DLD PE you maf?
Have you tried larvacide tablets in the retention pond? It could at least minimize the local population.Good luck with that! I've got a mosquito breeding ground behind my house (aka retention pond).

It's a county-owned/maintained retention pond. Though I could probably toss some over the fence and into the pond.....Have you tried larvacide tablets in the retention pond? It could at least minimize the local population.

One could call the county and ask them to do it. Realistically, it's something that the Vector/Pest/Mosquito/Sanitation/or Health Departments should be doing as a matter of their regular business. But.... most don't.It's a county-owned/maintained retention pond. Though I could probably toss some over the fence and into the pond.....![]()
All the neighbors would probably appreciate me for that!
