2-Pack Summit Mosquito Dunks

Have used these with great success in a catch basin that always has about 1-1/2" of standing water in it. I suspend the dunk with a piece of twine from the grate that covers the catch basin so that it sits in the water. After the first use, the mosquitoes in that area of the garden were gone! Have to replace every month, or more often if there's a heavy, heavy rain (we're talking 3-4 inches). I like that it's safe to use.

So these are two inch round donuts that look and feel like they are made out of sawdust. I saw online somewhere to put them in buckets full of stagnant water to eliminate mosquitoes. As they dissolve, I believe they release an enzyme that attacks the larvae that hatch from the eggs that female mosquitoes unwittingly lay in your buckets. Ultimately they are for use in larger stagnant ponds and large swampy areas, but I break one up and place in several various coffee cans that I have painted woodland colors and placed around the house and property. It takes about ten days for the mosquitoes to fall for the coffee cans, lay their eggs, and everyone to die off, but once the process starts, the mosquito population (and seems like a few other flying pests too) legitimately drops away to almost nothing. Best $25 I've spent all summer and I think I've only used three of them. One dunk covers like 100 sq. ft., so the top of a coffee can is about one sq. ft., so one dunk goes a long way. I put some more in the cans about every two weeks. *Pro Tip- Create some kind of small roof for you cans or buckets so when you have a heavy rain, they don't overflow washing all your stagnant water and dunks away. They work great for this, can't say enough about them. Safe for animals too.

I'm surprised there are no other reviews for this product. Oh well, I'll be first! I live in GA and in the summers mosquitos can be bad. I get bit all the time. For the previous 2 years I've hired "mosquito services" to come spray the yard. It helped, but I'd call them to come out between scheduled visits because me and my two sons would still get bit. This year I saw the dunks and liked the idea of killing the source (larvae) instead of the ready-to-drink-blood mosquito. Plus, I don't like chemicals !! (that is, the spraying of the yard, etc) April of this year I was ticked off when I got bit by 2-3 mosquitos and it wasn't even mosquito season yet! I bought the dunks and put them in several places in the backyard. It is now almost July, 90 degree weather, humid, and I haven't been bitten in a couple weeks!!! Awesome product and MUCH less expensive than just ONE application from the Mosquito Spray company.

Last summer we couldn't even use our back yard due to the number of mosquitos. I did every thing possible to reduce standing water but couldn't eliminate it. I did not want to use sprays and insecticides that would be harmful to other insects I purchased these hoping it would help and it did. Dramatic reduction of mosquitos... Perhaps attributed to the dunks? I started putting water in the bird bath again and not a single larvae! Use pieces for the bottom trays of plants on the deck for overflow water. Even put a bucket of water on the deck with one just as bait to entice egg laying where they will not survive. We still have mosquitos but just a fraction of the number previously experienced. Only downside is that the do not last as long as indicated. They break down and must be replaced sooner than every 30 days. You can break into smaller pieces for smaller amounts of water though.

I have acre of land with a bucket at each corner. I put water in the bucket and one of the dunks and it works!!! If you have standing water they have granules too. Really lessons the mosquitoes tremendously. Great stuff. Also it doesn’t bother the animals.

We’ve had a lot of mosquitos in our yard this summer, and have a water feature (semi-moving water). We put these mosquito dunkers in it and the problem lessened. Then, because we misplaced them, the problem returned after a couple of weeks. We ordered more and will never let them lapse again! They work!

Have absolutely tried everything in my battle with those sick villans. It would take two minutes in my yard in the morning before I would be besieged by mosquitoes. These pods have kept my yard mosquito free all summer. I give them out as gifts to fellow gardeners. Wonderful product.

OK.....these do work, however they look gross when they get wet. (Imagine dark brown donut floating around in clear water- imagine the pool scene in Caddyshack and you'll get the picture). Not appealing whatsoever. Also, I had to cut them down, because of the amount of water I was using, it was a mess. These might work in a large Koi pond or something, where you do not need to cut, but not to good for smaller bird baths.

Works great, I use small pieces for my house plants to get rid of small flyers, or fungus Nats. Works great

Good product fast delivery good service

Used in pond and a water feature and it works well in my opinion

these cleared up my fungus gnat problem in house plants.

Get rid of fungus gnats once and for all !!
