Mosquito dunks? I've never heard of dunks Ron, guess I'll have to check 
Lowes after Home Depot, they're closer.

Barry: The amount of oil required to keep mosquito larve from living in 
the slack tub or any body of water is WAY too little to affect quench 
properties. All you need is a sheen, I like garlic oil, more effective 
and I LIKE garlic. A drop of Marvel Mystery Oil is good too and it 
smells like wintergreen.

I'm going to check out the dunks though, never hurts to have more than 
one trick in the bag.
