Mosquito Dunks are a biological mosquito control product used to kill mosquito larvae. The active ingredient is Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (B.T.I.), which works by releasing toxins into standing water where mosquito larvae feed. Each dunk is effective for 30 days or longer under typical environmental conditions. This product is suitable for organic production and is designed for use in containerized standing water near households. Ideal application sites include bird baths, flower pots, tree holes, roof gutters, rain barrels, old tires, unused swimming pools, and animal watering troughs. When using outdoors, apply one Mosquito Dunk per 10 square feet of water surface. The product is intended for use in water habitats where mosquito larvae accumulate. Users should note that the product is designed to be placed in water, and the active ingredient does not include product performance or potency measurements that are federally standardized. Always follow the specific directions for use and precautions provided on the label to ensure effective control and safety.
