Mosquito larvae is anywhere! Some of them are in Stagnant Waters and some are in Flowing Waters or Pure/Clean Waters. Even in our flowerpots, pail of water, etc.
Yes - mosquito larvae are like potato chips to goldfish! I have a container water garden on my patio and earlier this week I noticed that it was completely full of hundreds of mosquito larvae swimming around in the water. I bought two (just two!) goldfish and put them in it this morning. Within the course of three hours, the two goldfish had eaten every single mosquito larvae - not a single one left. I strongly recommend common goldfish for anyone who has a mosquito larvae problem in their pond or water garden.
