[RP TownTalk] Off Schedule Mosquito Spraying

[Jessica Barnes]

The Maryland Department of Agriculture will do an "off schedule" spraying for mosquitoes in the areas between Route 1 and the Railroad tracks on Thursday, July 26th  after 7:30 pm, weather permitting.  If they are unable to spray on Thursday, spraying will take place on Sunday, July 29th, after 7:30 pm, weather permitting.

Our scheduled night for spraying is on Tuesdays after 7:30 pm.  Our area was sprayed on July 17th and they will spray again on Tuesday, July 31st.

Residents should take the usual steps to reduce the presence of mosquitoes on their property.  For example, residents must keep their property free of mosquitoes breeding containers, stagnant water, bird baths, wading pools, pet watering dishes, tin cans, old tires, clogged gutters or flower pots.  Other water holding containers should be stored upside down.

Complaints about mosquitoes can be faxed to the Maryland Department of Agriculture at 301-422-0502 or call 301-422-5080 with questions or concerns.
