What Do I do With/About the Bird Bath?

I have a bird bath near the bird feeders in the back yard. With all of the concern about the West Nile Virus and that disease being spread by mosquitoes that breed in standing water I am wondering if I should keep water in it or keep it empty. Also we have had quite a bit of rain that has kept the birdbath pretty full. So what should I do, let it be or remove it until the possibility of mosquitoes goes away?

    1.) You can empty it out and refill it each day. Mosquitoes need time to grow from larvae.

    2.) You could replace it with a fountain. Mosquitoes have trouble breeding in water that moves...they need stagnant water.
