Baby shrimp spotted!

They are so hard to see, I had to sit there for 10 minutes to notice

I leave 2 buckets of water in the yard for the larvae

My idea is to convince adult mosquitoes that these buckets are the best places in the area to lay their precious eggs, I use my pond water and add some vegetable debris. Every 3 days I empty the buckets on the concrete, after I take some larvae for my fishes.

Will it limit the amount of adults I'll see flying in my yard this summer? I mean, mosquitoes will lay their many but limited eggs somewhere around whether I provide buckets or not, but if I do, and if they lay them in there, I can intervene negatively in their success, right?

Of course I must remember to empty the buckets.
