No. Heartworms come from adult mosquitoes through the BITE. Baby heartworms are injected with the mosquito bite and migrate to the heart through the blood system.

So, while ingesting water with mosquito larvae in it will not give your dog heartworms, if they are allowed to grow up into adult mosquitoes, the adults may bite your dog and give it heartworms.
