Spraying for mosquitos

The Town of Hebron sprays for mosquito control during the “mosquito season.”

We use an “ultra-low volume cold aerial sprayer” that applies the smallest amount of adulticide to control the number of adult mosquitos in the town.

To be effective the weather conditions must be optimal. Wind speed, humidity, rain, and time of day are factors that determine if we will spray that day.

The adulticide we use is a non-toxic water based chemical, safe for humans and pets. The main hazard is for bees, but the time mosquitos are most active, the bees are safely in their nest.

If you have questions about truck spraying we have provided a link, below, to the CDC which should answer them.
