Dunks contain BTI which is specifically designed to kill mosquitos at their larvae stage

Mosquito Dunks are the only sustained-release B.T.I. mosquito larvacides available. The floating Briquettes formulation releases effective levels of B.T.I. at the water's surface for a period of 30 days or more. Mosquito Dunks remain in the water column where mosquito larvae feed, to give you continuous kill. Made with natural B.T.I., Mosquito Dunks represent a major breakthrough for people and the environment when compared with the traditional toxic chemical approach to mosquito control.

B.T.I. is a bacterium that controls mosquitoes and black flies in their larval filter-feeding stage of development. Mosquito Dunks release a constant, low dose of B.T.I. so early instars may survive temporarily. However, continuous ingestion of the active ingredient produces a chronic infection, which kills the larvae so you will not observe pupae and the adult mosquitoes will not emerge. The larvae die after consuming the bacteria that causes a disease specific to them but is harmless to all other forms of wildlife.
