Small fish Prey on Mosquitoes.

The one way to prevent mosquitoes
from multiplying in pools that can,
not be drained is to place small fish
in these pools. 1t is only the very
small fish that make them their prey
in all stages of their development.
Consequently the presence of large
fish in any lake or pond is a positive
injury instead of a benefit so far as
mosquitoes are concerned, because al
most all large fish make prey of the
