Will my water garden attract mosquitoes?

If your pond water is stagnant it’ll definitely attract mosquitoes.

The trick is to make sure that your pond water is moving constantly.

If your pond water is moving, mosquitoes will be much less interested.

But just in case, skimmers sweep mosquito larvae in and drown them

Fish consider them a delicacy and pick them off the pond surface like candy

If you insist, you can use a larvae killer like PreStrike.

If you have a correctly constructed pond you can expect the mosquito population in your backyard will actually be less than without a pond.
