Only if you have not scratched it.

You can cause a "redness/rash" at the site merely by scratching the bite and spreading the mosquito saliva around. If the swelling spreads out past a normal size (more than 1") then it is possible you are having an allergic reaction.

Do goldfish eat mosquito larva?

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.
