There are fish that eat these little bugs. If you have a pond and need to have these pests gone these fish can do it for you. Killing these is easy if you can dump the standing water they live in. They need the water to live and grow.
You can disinfect water that contains mosquito larvae. More bleach is required the older the larvae get. Older stages of larvae require a lethal dose of 250ppm so it is best to use this concentration as a one-off treatment. CloroxTM is 5.25% w/v sodium hypochlorite so this equates to 4.76 ml of bleach and made up to 1 liter of water.
Or just under 2 tablespoons (or 24 ml) of bleach per 5 liters of water.
This can be followed up with weekly doses of 50ppm bleach (or approx. 1ml of bleach per liter).
It is better to clean the container first, wherever possible as this will also help to remove the nutrients in the water that the larvae feed on.
Pest control is important. How to kill insects in their larval stage depends on what insect they are to become, however, many stores carry general full cycle insect treatment for pools.
yes
mosquito larva live anywhere in water
Mosquito need to reproduce to survive...larva is one of the steps of this process.
Mosquito larvae are just named according to the species of mosquito, ie - 'Culex larva'.
A mosquito larva is called a wriggler because when you see it in water it distinctively wriggles.

The adult mosquito lays it's eggs in water. The egg hatches into a larva, and the larva feeds on organisms in the water. Then when the larva matures into a mosquito, the mosquito flies around and feeds on organism's blood.
