Sophia Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 There are some tiny eggs in a bucket of water on my deck and I'm trying to work out what they are. They are laid on the surface, in clusters ranging in size from about 2 x 2mm to 5 x 5 mm. They are black, slightly bigger than bloodworm eggs, and spaced evenly. They're too small to take a photo :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 Aren't the mosquito eggs the ones that form rafts on the water surface? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Li@m Posted November 21, 2013 Report Share Posted November 21, 2013 :iag: Mosquito eggs are laid together to form rafts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted November 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 They aren't rafts, they are individual dots, not stuck together at all. Rather like pores on your nose, if you will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
