http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copepod

The copepods can be added to water-storage containers where the mosquitoes breed. Copepods, primarily of the genera Mesocyclops and Macrocyclops (such as Macrocyclops albidus), can survive for periods of months in the containers, if the containers are not completely drained by their users. They will attack, kill, and eat the younger 1st and 2nd instar larvae of the mosquitoes. This biological control method is complemented by community trash removal and recycling to eliminate other possible mosquito-breeding sites.

awesome

Just to be safe, you should probably boil any water before drinking it.

Actually it's just New York.

New York doesn't mechanically filter it's tap sources - Santa Clara County does. So I know I'm OK.

I use a Brita filter but that's just for taste - there is NOTHING wrong with tap water; bottled water on the other hand is the devil.
