misquito culture not working

Well thats basicly it the culture isnt working its been out there for about 5-7 weeks. The water hasnt turned green or anything but there is alot of rotting plants and these small white strings that look like nerves connecting attached to plants.
Theres misquito's alright i know that for a fact becouse they sting me like crazy evry night

I live in the Caribbean. I don't understand why some DIY mosquito larvae directions suggest using organic decaying matter (potato peels, bread crums, etc).

I rather use water from a tank, place a small sponge filter, use an easy to remove plant and leave alone outdoors for a week or so, just feed the tank with a pinch of fish food every other day. In a week or so, grab the container, remove the plant, filter the water through a fish net and there you go.

Risk: If you let too much time pass by, Mosquitoes will hatch and guess who becomes life food for the females!

If you are sure of miosquito flying around already in Beijing, all you need is shallow water pan outside. Before you know it, you will see little wiggling larvae.
