Default Mosquito issue in standing pots.

Oh really? Why is that? I was just mentioning to K30 the other day that I
had put a partial dunk in a rubber container and the mosquito larvae were
still thriving after 48 hours. Put in the Bits and all dead in 12-24. What
is the difference, do you know? ~ jan

Mosquito Bits can kill within 24 hours. Mosquito Dunks take longer.
Both products used together offer fast, long-term control, lasting up
to about a month per treatment. EPA approved, etc.

They could be many different kinds of lavra
(over 5,000 insects spend part or all of their lives in water!) but to be on
the safe side you can add a Mosquito Dunk or Mosquito Bits
(since West Nile showed up they are widely available now) - if they are
mosquito larva they'll be dead in 24 hours.
