About the use Methoprene the previous colleagues have some good information.
I would suggest you get the information from Cornell University which has the citations of critical work.
While methoprene is good for beneficial insects its aquatic issues can include toxicity to fish other aquatics. Amphibians are very susceptible.
I think Bacillus would represent a better option if aquatic issues are contemplated.

Only S-methoprene had been approved in the EU (65733-16-6). Methoprene refers to R,S-methoprene. If you were looking for specifically that, sorry cnnot help. But check this:

This is the latest summary with the most studies done in line with current OECD guidelines.
For the sake of precision, it is an active substance approved as biocide, and Janos Szilagyi said
