It just looked like tree residue and outdoor stuff. I didn't realize until about 10 minutes later that there were little worm looking things swimming in it. The doctor is closed and i'll call monday morning but does anyone have an opioion on it now.

Good question. As far as I know (or can find out) mosquito larvae eat only algae, bacteria and other larvae. I don't think that either the algae or the mosquito larvae will hurt her.

Yuck, I am sure she is fine. If the larva were living, at least the water wasn't polluted. I would give her a bath, and write it down in her baby book. Of course, if she starts buzzing or drinking blood I'd call the doctor......

She'll be fine!
Just give her a bath (inside in a clean bathtub) to wash off the "ick"
Mosquito larvae can't survive outside of water and are not parasitic.

Warn bath and wash all her body well with lots of soap. This should include shampoo of her hair as well.

I would say bath her really good and just in case to be on the safe side I would take she to see the doctor.

You could call Poison Control?
Or the ER nurse.

The wrigglers do not bite people, the adults do. However, water like this can contain bacteria, and ameba. Wash her well and if she appears ok, forget about it.
