Hello all! My family and I purchased chickens a bit over a year ago, and we've moved to a new house that backs up to a creek. The creek is generating mosquito's, and I'm running across information that leads me to believe that ducks might be good for mosquito control - is this accurate? Will they truly make a sizable dent in the local population, or am I kidding myself?
Also, if I allow them to free range (which would include the creek), will they stick around, or will they become wild?
Finally, breeds to consider? We have 2 acres (including the house), so space shouldn't be an issue.
Thanks in advance!
