    I was going to recommend Mosquito Dunks then I saw that Lynn already told you that.


    Thought I’d let you know we’ve had great success with them too.

    You can sprinkle the water with Sevin dust and it will kill the larvae. After they are dead, since the fountain is inside, you can clean the fountain and it should be good
