Safety and Prevention
Mosquito Spraying
Evening Mosquito Spraying – The City has started to spray for mosquitoes in the evenings. Residents may want to go inside just before their area is sprayed and stay inside for 20-30 minutes until the aerosol cloud dissipates. Residents should not run, walk, or bike directly through the aerosol cloud behind the insecticide sprayer. Also, anyone who is sensitive to chemicals may want to close their windows during the ground spraying. To ensure spray effectiveness during the spraying operations, the winds should be 15 mph or less and no inclement weather present. Winds higher than 15 mph or inclement weather may result in the spraying being suspended until conditions improve.
