I'm not sure, but to keep them from laying eggs in the water, put a long stick in the water. the mosquitos will lay their eggs on that, and you can take the stick and chuck it later.

No
To effectively kill mosquito larvae in your pool, you can use larvicide products specifically designed for pools, such as mosquito dunks or mosquito larvae control tablets. These products contain ingredients that target and eliminate mosquito larvae without harming other aquatic life. Follow the instructions on the product label for proper application and dosage to ensure effective control of mosquito larvae in your pool. Additionally, regularly cleaning and maintaining your pool, including removing debris and stagnant water, can help prevent mosquito breeding and reduce the presence of larvae.

Hey, at least you don't have frogs... ;-)
You use it to kill the jerms in the pool!
