Arizona Aquatic Gardens (azgardens.com) is one of the country's largest growers of farm-raised Mosquito fish.  Readily available to be delivered to your door on demand especially when governmental agencies are not able to supply the much needed demand of this fish.  This environmentally important fish used for controlling mosquitoes and their larvae is sold commercially and privately through our company.  We grow this fish for many governmental mosquito control programs, but also grow them for controlling mosquitoes on golf course ponds, and many other commercial sites.  We also offer an ideal program for private residential uses where stagnant water may become a breeding ground for Mosquitoes, such as neglected swimming pools, non-circulated fountains, bird baths, and garden ponds.

Biological mosquito control methods are one of the mainstays in protecting the public from mosquitoes and the transmission of mosquito-borne diseases.  Mosquito biological control of Gambusia affinis is one of the best and most natural solutions available without the use of harmful chemicals.  Mosquito fish are a small live-bearing minnow closely related to the common guppy.  Used in mosquito control in the USA since 1915, these fish are vivacious consumers of mosquito larvae and pupae and can survive in varying water conditions from moderately high levels of Salt, Algae, Pollutants & Temperature Ranges from nearly freezing to above 100 degrees.  These fish are compatible with most ornamental pond fish such as Koi, Goldfish and Carp which make them an excellent addition to any pond.  Because mosquito fish are surface feeders, they are extremely efficient mosquito predators.  Mosquito fish have been said to consume upwards of 80-100 mosquito larvae per day, and are capable of quickly populating a water source if conditions are favorable.  The fish are placed in a variety of permanent and semi-permanent fresh water habitats, including: unused swimming pools, animal watering troughs, rice fields, golf course ponds, wetlands, natural creeks, reservoirs, & drainage channels.  Mosquito fish are fantastic in shallow areas where larger fish cannot penetrate to eat the larvae.
