Hello all,
I am desiging a garden at the moment and would love some clarification on
ponds.
I would love not to have a pump. From what I can gather, flowing water
inhibits mosquito larvae, and fish eat mosquito larvae. Do I need a pump to
have fish though? Would frogs and dragonflies be sufficient to control the
larvae and therefore construction of a frog pond sufficient?
I look forward to your response,
Peace,
James
