I use the dunks in my rain barrel.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Use it in rainbarrell water collection and Sump Pump drain. Appears to work well but does not last the 30 days as stated. Have recommended to friends with standing water.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I buy mosquito control rings every year to put in my many rainbarrels. They are so easy to use, just drop them in and no mosquitos! Like I said, I wouldn't be without them!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use these in my rainbarrels
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I've never had a problem with mosquitos or other insects since I've used these mosquito control rings.
They could not be simpler to use. Toss one in the pond about every 30 days
and they go to work to keep my pond free of unwanted mosquitos.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I order these every year for my water barrels, and they work great!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Great to have a supply around for use in rain barrels, water gardens and pond. Can see the difference if one wears out and we forget to replace it, mosqueto larve show up right away. Also easy to break in half for use in smaller containers.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I put one in my pond where mosquitos are a very nasty problem. My cat drinks out of this pond, so I couldn't use bleach. These tablets float around and got rid of the mosquitos. They gave the water a salty taste, but my cat can drink it and I don't have to worry. We are now mosquito free! I am amazed!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I am developing a small pond and will not be adding a pump until next spring. Mosquitoes had used it as a larva nursery until I put in one of The mosquito control rings. Larva was gone in a couple of days. Three happy frogs have moved in and are not affected by the ring. GREAT PRODUCT!!!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use these in my rain barrels all summer long and they really work!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Used in a rain barrel. Maybe used to much and the water went funny? Turned the hanging baskets a different color, but did control the bugs.
Maybe overlooked the amount to use but how much do you use for a rain barrel?
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use these in my 2 water barrels and any other standing water I can't dump out. We live in mosquito country and they are quite effective. Hard to find, too.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Just one-quarter of a ring keeps a birdbath free of mosquito larvae--I have had the same one in the birdbath for several weeks, and it is still working. Nice to be able to enjoy the birdbath without worrying about contributing to the mosquito population.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
These mosquito control rings are just what we need to keep mosquitos from breeding in our two new rain barrels. The initial rings have lasted longer than their 30 day claim, and we are very pleased with their ease of use and effectiveness.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
This product inhibits mosquitoes in our 40-gallon water tank kept for deer and other critters. Nice especially since the tank is shaded a good part of the day. We weigh a ring down with a rock so animals like raccoons will be less likely to disturb and try to eat the product. Usually lasts between times when we scrub out the tank. Excellent product. See tank location photo.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I like not having to empty the birdbath every other day. It does seem to work in detering the mosquites.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I'd never used these before, but we were having such an infestation of mosquitoes that I had to try something. We keep buckets of water out for deer, as well as a birdbath. I used a quarter of a dunk for each deer water bucket, and about 1/8th for the birdbath. Haven't seen any mosquitoes, so the dunks must be doing their job. The only thing I don't like is that the dunks seem to leave a "scum" around the edges of the containers. That's probably not really a problem, but it's unsightly.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use this in my water fountain at my cottage since I can't be there all the time to run in and in my bird bath. It works great, is easy and painless to use. Thanks for such a great, useful product.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
thank you for such a great product it really works
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I was looking for something to get rid of mosquitoes but still keep my yard safe for my cat to 'hang out" in it. After only a few weeks of use, I'm seeing fewer mosquitoes already! ...And since my cat doesn't have access to the water source, I don't have to worry about her being exposed to harmful chemicals!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Love these mosquito dunks, I use them in my rain barrels and my birdy "wading pool". They really help a lot.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use the mosquito rings in my small pond.

You can write the date on the empty packaging spaces to remind you of when the next treatment is due, so you don't use too often.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
This product does not hurt the fish in my pond.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Great for your bird bath for mosquito control
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use these in my bird bath. Your only need to use a 1/4 of a ring and it lasts FOREVER! I haven't had to dump the bird bath out since I put it in there three weeks ago!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Our pond usually breeds lots of mosquitos. These mosquito rings make it possible for us to sit around the pond and enjoy the day without having to swat at mosquitos. They last for weeks and the frogs and tadpoles are not adversely affected.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Pop it in the birdbath or rain barrel and don't worry about attracting mosquitoes!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
These mosquito control rings are easily divided for smaller containers that hold water throughout the summer as continuous watering troughs. Also excellent for rain barrel usage. They're a plus for any gardener. And that means less chemical spray needed on your body!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Eliminates mosquitos from my rain barrels; never have had any problems with standing water since I started using Mosquito "doughnuts". Have been using them for approximately 4 years now--they work, they're easy to use, and they appear to pose no danger to anything--except mosquitos!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
After installing our Gardeners Supply rain water barrels we didn't want the water contaminated with mosquito larve. As long as the rain barrels have water in them, on a monthly scheldule we're adding Gardeners Supply Mosquito Control Rings to the rain barrel. These are easy to use and do a great job. Along with NO MOSQUITOS from the rain barrels there doesn't appear to be any mosquitos in our yard period!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use these in my small pond and rainbarrels. They work great and I don't have to worry that I'm hurting wildlife or the environment.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use it in the pond, the gray water and all standing water here in the gardens. Works very well. Thank you.

easy

Didn't get rid of all the mosquitos but did eliminate my running a mosquito incubator in all my birdbaths!

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
These are great for controling mosquito larvae in my fish pond, and bird baths. I also use them io our rain barrel. With many pot plants in our yard, these rings, broken into 4ths, control larvae in the pot saucers, especially the self watering pots.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
These are wonderful! They really help control mosquitoes and keep me in my garden. They are so safe, the neighbor's dachshund ate one and it didn't hurt her a bit.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
The mosquitoes control rings are easy to use and long lasting. We have had no mosquitoes in the rain barrels we have ordered from Gardeners Supply. Both the mosquitoes control rings work well in the rain barrels.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I purchased these as a way to solve a persistant problem with mosquito larva in my bird bath. As the bath dosn't hold alot of water, I broke each "ring" into quarters and only use one piece at a time.
So far I've been "larva free"! One draw back is that the ring sort of crumbles into little brown pellets that wash out easily when you clean. It's a small price to pay for having no mosquitos!
This doesn't seem to bother the birds at all; I have more now than ever before.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I live by arrigation ditches...and this product works greeeat! Keeps the mosguitos population almost to O.....I smile about about that one!!! Great stuff!!

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I needed something to keep the mosquitos from breeding in my rainbarrel--this is working wonderfully!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Bordering a piece of clay which turns into a swamp during rainy times, mosquitoes bred easily. This helps with the fountain and rain barrels from adding to the entire situation.

Just drop 2 into pond monthly keeps the mosquitos from breeding

I'm using these to help the mosquito population in my yard! They work great - haven't seen a one since starting to use these.

There is nothing to dislike about the mosquito control rings - easy to use AND effective. I've been using them for years in my little pond, and I also throw a few into the water that accumulates across the street from my home.

We have a lagune pond & these are great to control the mosquito lavae.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
very easy to use
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I have used these in my backyard pond and any other standing water around my yard for the past several years. They REALLY WORK!! We still have mosquitoes due to the large amount of foliage surrounding our yard, but the mosquito rings keep the water areas completely clear of "wigglers" (mosquito larva). My dogs have even occasionally drunk water from the pond with no ill effects, so it truly doesn't harm other living things!

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
We have been using a rain barrel for a few years now. I purchased this hoping that it would kill the insects that hatch in water. Seems to be working.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I collect rainwater in buckets and barrels, I drop a ring in each container to control mosquitoes. I float one in my birdbaths as well, and so far I have been very pleased. The rings will separate, but they seem to remain effective.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I keep containers under the rainspouts to catch the water for my house plants that I put outdoors in the summer. So far, the mosquito rings have kept the water in the containers free from mosquito larvae.

Last summer I saw mosquito larve in my rain barrels, but this summer I have not seen a single one.

I use these in my solar fountain and they work great - that's really saying something in Miami in the summer!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
We live on the high plains in Colorado...very dry and arid. We have a very small pond for wildlife and then realized we had mosquitoes! We used this product in North Carolina (where there are A LOT of mosquitoes) with great success. It is also doing the job here. We have dogs, also.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Have used them in my rain barrels and in my fountains.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I bought these to put in the small pond in our backyard. The pond has an upper level, a small fall in the middle and a lower level that then empties into a small brook and flows through the woods along side the property. The whole thing is weather dependent - no rain = no pond, no pond = no brook, etc... Are there less mosquitos around now? Not really, but it's hard to say that the product doesn't work. I put them in the pond so maybe they work great and the mosquitos I'm seeing are coming from the brook or the neighbors yard or the vernal pools in the woods. Mosquitos know no boundaries right?
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use in all water gardens & bird baths.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Can't get any easier, just toss in the pond and your done.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:

Living in Florida and having pets, the last thing I want is mosquitoes and a chance for heart worm! These simple rings seem to work well without spraying pesticides.

I live on wetlands and find these very effective. They don't eliminate the problem entirely, but their certainly worth buying.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Simply unwrap the ring and toss it into the water. Unlike bottled liquids, the floating rings keep the water larvae-free regardless of the amount of water added. Previously I'd use a liquid, applied by drops, that would become ineffective after rainfall or evaporation. The rings take away the guess work. When the ring is gone, replace it.
My only negative comment is that the rings would last longer and not "beach" so easily if they were larger. By "beach" I mean that the ring will sometimes cling to the dry sides of the pond when heavy evaporation occurs.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Worked very well in the rain barrel and lasted through 1/2 of the season.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
My fountain is one of my favorite garden features. It is in the middle of my lilly garden.
When the fountain isn't running the mosquitos and bugs converge. This was making it impossible to work and enjoy my daylilly garden. With this product the problem is gone. What a joy to fix the problem and still make the fountain safe for
squirrles and birds. Thanks Wendy

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
with scares about mosquito born diseases, having a pond can seem like a danger. This controls mosquitoes at the larval level, eliminating the entire threat.

Plop one in your rain barrel - that's all there is to it. Once it disolves plop in another one.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
It's simple to use and works well.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
easy to use. Throw it in and forget. No wigglers
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I get boggy springs and dry summers and these are great for those places that get wet then dry out. No worries about all your persistent puddles and boggy areas if you have a few of these strategically placed for stormy weather.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I am using this product in my birdbath, outdoor decorative water fountain, and rain barrels to prevent mosquitos.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
This is our first time trying the rings in our
small pond. They seem to help.

Several times when I have had these rings in seldom used 30 gallon containers, I open the lid and out fly dozens of mosquitos. At other times, fine.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Since west nile virus is a major problem in this area, let alone the mosquito bites, I have used these rings in any still water; rain barrels, pond without fish or water flow, for the past five years. I even used them in my fish pond until the fish got established.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
So easy to use and effective
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I placed dunks in my water fountains and birdbaths. Does keep the mosquito larva from forming.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I just bought a rain barrel and it's nice to know that I am not attracting any unwanted insects buy collecting the rain
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
This product is okay except I can't keep my dog from getting into the pond and bringing these back to me.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
It has kept our pond mosquito free! I use them with the floating glass candle holders. Beautiful!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
The mosquito rings are the only thing I have found that keep my rain water barrels free from larvae. Larvae do not appear and if I find any that have missed my inspection, all I do is add the ring to the water and the larvae are killed. The rings are easy to use, just drop in the water container.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Did the job.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
works very well in my rain barrel, have never seen any mosquito's in or near my barrel
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
KEEPS THE MOSQUITOS FROM TAKING OVER THE WHOLE FRONT OF THE HOUSE AROUND THE POND
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I'm not willing to risk adding to the mosquito population because of my rains barrels so I wouldn't go through a summer without them. I have no solid proof that these rings really control the mosquitoes in my back yard, but I trust any product recommended by Gardener's Supply.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I bought 4 rain barrels for each corner of the house, so we have a lot of potential for mosquitoes. I haven't noticed any problem at all since using the rings.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I have a fountain (sometimes I don't have it running) and a birdbath. Having the Mosquito Control Rings floating in the water assures me that Mosquito eggs do not last long enough to hatch. It's safe for my dogs to take a drink and the bird to enjoy a nip in the water as well.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I have used this product for 5 years and am completely satisfied.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Hello..well the funny thing is I bought this product for my neighbors pond.which is 100ft around..so that is large..so I threw in three donuts..and wow..no more mosqitos...yes I would highly recommend them..thankyou so much, my front porch was infested with them nightly..and now it is like heaven to sit outside at night..
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
The rings are great- easy to break in half and drop in the pond and the rain barrel. I'm thrilled to have a safe solution for my family & pets.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I have four rain barrels around my home and mosquitos are a HUGE problem in Florida. The mosquito control rings have allowed me to have the benefits of stored rain water without creating more of a mosquito problem than we already have. They are very easy to use...just drop one into your standing water areas about once a month and forget about it! I will never be without them!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I used this product all summer to control mosquito larve in my bird bath and in my water garden container. It was really easy to use, I placed one disk in my bird bath and plant container every month. Not once have I seen any mosquito larve.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
This product complete eradicated the mosquito issue in our water collections barrels. It had no affect on plants that received water from the treated barrels and is unbelievable easy to apply. I would recommend this to all gardener who have standing water in their garden.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Works great, but falls apart if try to move it after has been in water a while. (used in my rain barrel).
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
These rings seem work well to prevent mosquitoes on my little backyard pond. Glad to find them, I was having a hard time finding them locally.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I use the Bt rings every year in my ~750 gal pond. Each ring last about a month. Controls mosquitoes great. Does not seem to affect my turtles, fish, snails or (tadpole) frogs.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Living in a highly wooded part of Minnesota, keeping the mosquitos at bay is a must especially with West Nile in the rise. This products works and works fast!
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Happy with the Mosquito control rings. The surface area of the water barrel I bought means that I only use 1/4 of a ring every 2 months. One pack will last ages. Great stuff.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
These are too large in my fountain - and don't look very attractive. I think next time I'll go for the a more dissovable product
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Easy to use and works. Can't get much better than that. It doesn't bother the Koi fish or snails.

Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
Mosquitos are pervasive throughout our Dallas spring, summer and autumn, and sometimes well into winter. We could not survive outside without using dunks. Throw one whole one into a water barrel and you're m. free for a month, a half into a birdbath does the same.
Comments about Mosquito Control Rings:
I throw these in the cisterns attached to our downspouts.
