Hillsborough County’s mosquito fish are on the move.
The small fish, which love to feast on mosquito larvae, will be available at numerous locations throughout Hillsborough County during the summer. They are ideal for backyard ponds, birdbaths, fountains, animal troughs, unused swimming pools, and other standing water that provide breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
The fish are distributed from specially outfitted trucks, and residents can pick up the mosquito fish for free with a photo ID showing residence in Hillsborough County, including the cities of Tampa, Temple Terrace, and Plant City. The fish are available first-come, first-served while supplies last.
The county is providing the native, freshwater fish as an effective, natural way for residents to control the spread of mosquito-borne disease. The fish require no feeding or special care.
