WHAT CAN I PUT IN RAIN BARREL TO KEEP OUT MISQUITOES?

[1911DA]

Empty the barrel and turn it upside down.........a suggestion from a friend

Yes that is what I do at the first sign of mosquito Larvae. Sometimes I wait a day or two & dump lots more larvae

Try a screen. Black plastic window screen with a fine mesh works well.

Besides oil?

A water pump would work. It's my understanding that mosquitos don't like active water.
