Pond Boss Forums Thread Like Summary - Culex pipiens.

Hello.

For my Yellow-perch larvae next spring, I will put thousands of Mosquito eggs raft (Culex pipiens)

Hello.

Another great year, but this year I made new experience, unlike the fly larvae that the Perch fry do not accept, I made an installation to attract the Culex to come and lay their eggs.

I collect rafts of eggs all summer, it's so simple, I give them these mosquitoes in addition to the pellets.

I see a nice difference, they are more active they hunt and seem to be in better condition.

azteca,
I feel that the comments from the other members may come across a little harsh or have a little sting to them which I don't believe was intended. I want you to know that I think your idea is fabulous and that you should keep doing it.

Creating your own source of natural food that your YP love to eat and that makes them act healthy, vigorous and happy is a good thing! I don't see it as being any different than the forum members who were given encouragement to create soldier fly larva and feed them to their fish. The process of making lots of soldier fly larvae for sure also meant that there would be many more flies attracted to the location and some may argue that attracting and feeding a big fly population is not so nice for the humans around these members who prefer to have less bugs around their house.

I think your experiment is very neat and I'd like you to feel comfortable coming back here and reporting your progress.

Hello.

So if I understand, if I put a trap to catch mice an I give them to the cat, I breed mice.
