Mosquito Control in Stafford: Stay Protected This Summer
Stay protected this summer – Stafford starts mosquito spraying June 3.
Summer is a time for enjoying outdoor activities, but it also brings the challenge of increased mosquito activity. This year, the City of Stafford is taking proactive measures to ensure a more comfortable and safer summer for its residents. Starting June 3, Stafford will begin its mosquito control program, which includes city-wide spraying and additional treatments to curb mosquito populations. This initiative not only enhances the comfort of outdoor living but also emphasizes the commitment to public health.
Comprehensive Mosquito Control Measures in Stafford
The mosquito control initiative by Stafford is set to run from June 3 through September 30. Residential neighborhoods will be sprayed every Saturday between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m., starting June 6. Additionally, the City will treat standing water in rights-of-way and storm sewers with special tablets that target mosquito larvae, reducing the breeding grounds for these pests. These measures are crucial in minimizing the risk of vector-borne illnesses and improving the quality of life for residents. The City of Stafford's dedication to public health and safety is evident in these thorough and preventative actions.
