not my home, but one hunting camp I spend time at has a pond about a 100 ft away, its about 1/3 acre in size, and about 25 ft deep in center, NO running water in or out, but is spring fed
it 100% causes mosquito's to breed and strive, there water born insects, so where there is standing water they will hatch
things we have done to try and curb them, is spray about the area between it and all around where we hang out
we recently added a fountain to the pond to keep ripples in the water, which they claim will help, too soon to say either way, but is nice to look at , so a win there for sure! on that
we have also dyed the pond which some said would help prevent things from hatching, but didnlt see much real effect o that working, but some yrs are just worse yrs for mosquito's, so could have been just that
we do buy the floating donuts they seem to help some too
its not un live able, and I don;t really think if the pond was 1,000 ft away it would make any difference
it just water is where they live and bred and they will fly from there to where humans are ! were basically magnets for them things!
One thing I will add , is, building Bat houses can be a big help, if you still are lucky enough to have bats in your area,
we had tons at this camp and others, but the last 15 yrs or so, they are about vanished from this camp, which is why we also feel things are as bad as they are now as to yrs back!
there is a disease called White-nose syndrome (WNS) that is killing bats and has reduced there numbers to some scary low levels in some places.
but if you build bat houses and still have some, they will eat a LOT of skeeters in a night and are great additions to other steps to get rid of them!
