One dunk is typically sufficient for up to 100 square feet of surface water, regardless of the water's depth. For smaller containers like bird baths, you can break a dunk into smaller pieces to avoid over-application.
No, these dunks are designed to kill mosquito larvae before they develop into flying adults. They are a preventative measure meant to break the breeding cycle in standing water.
Yes, they are effective in any area where standing water accumulates, including indoor drainage areas, flooded basements, or sump pits. They work just as effectively indoors as they do outdoors.
The dunks are designed to be effective even if the water level fluctuates. If the water dries up completely, the dunk will remain in place and resume releasing the larvicide once the area fills with water again.
Each dunk provides 30 days of continuous protection. For ongoing control throughout the mosquito season, you should replace them once a month.
