Outdoor Pond Fish

Question
I have three ponds.  Only one has goldfish (water iris') and I do not see any mosquito larva in this pond.  The other two ponds BOTH have larva, which I have doused with BLEACH most effectively FOR A LITTLE WHILE.  I have to keep doing this every day or two.  Will introducing goldfish TO these other 2 ponds get rid of the larva naturally?  THANKS for your HELP!!  M.

Answer
Hi Mary,
 It might help but there is no guarantee. Do you have pumps in the ponds to circulate the water?  Mosquitos do best in still (stagnant) water so moving the water, such as might be done by a small fountain, can help alot.
