Another possible method of fairly environmentally friendly mosquito control, is create standing water, as in a barrel of water, but put enough dish soap in it to lower the surface tension.
Females come by to lay eggs, but instead get sucked in and drowned. Any larvae that manage to hatch will likewise drown.
Discovered this when I realized a roommates trash barrel had filled with rainwater, and subsequently been infested. I couldn’t just immediately dump it all over so. A squirt of soap and a quick mix with a stick made a graveyard.
