Since we're not going to be able to go out and follow up on that complaint of 'My neighbor's pond is collecting mosquitoes,' we want to have information available to the public on what to do about standing water, how to larvacide a pond.
If this kind of mosquito is present, then larvacides should be applied to all breeding sites in the area and people should be warned so they can put on a good non-DEET insect repellant.
They also were trying to treat hard-to-reach ponds with larvacide.
