RE: [RC] Water trough mosquito dunks - Chastain, Shannon L.

Does putting a cement/concrete block in the water put any bad stuff in the 
water I would not want my horse to ingest?

My horses always eat the dunks - I've tried anchoring them to a weight in the 
middle of the troughs, but they horses just reach over and get them anyway.  
I'm going to look for some sort of cage type thing to put them in to protect 
them.  I don't want to put bleach in the water because I might kill off other 
critters I enjoy, such as the water striders.
