Warren County Mosquito Commission Message

 


August 25, 2022

DUMP STANDING WATER! 

Between August 22-23, 2022, a variation of about a half an inch to nearly 5 “ of rain fell across Warren County, with the highest measured precipitation falling  in the southern portion  of the County.   We are asking for your help to reduce the potential mosquito populations that could hatch due to this rainfall.  The easiest way to eliminate mosquitoes is to get rid of standing water around your home and neighborhood.   

Please help us help you.  It is not possible for the Mosquito Commission to go through each yard.  Our nighttime treatments only kill the mosquitoes flying at that time.  Check your yards and neighborhoods for anything that holds water.  Dump the water from containers, such as buckets, kiddie pools, plant saucers, kayaks, and boats. Drain standing water from tarps and pool covers.   Recycle tires and other containers properly.   Keep lids on recycling and trash cans. Bird baths and pet dishes should be scrubbed weekly to eliminate mosquito eggs.   Clean up trash in your neighborhood.   Our staff is out daily treating natural mosquito habitats and we are asking for your help with the manmade habitats!

Defend yourself from mosquito bites by wearing repellent and securing window and door screens.   If one repellent does not work for you, try one with a different active ingredient.  Check the Centers of Disease Control website https://www.cdc.gov/zika/prevention/prevent-mosquito-bites.html

 for information about EPA approved repellents For more information please contact the Warren County Mosquito Control Commission at www.warrencountymosquito.org or call 908-453-3585
