It is once again time for Bay County Mosquito Control's aerial treatment program for control of mosquito larvae. As in past years, the week-long treatment will begin in mid-April. Click HERE for the 2009 Bay County Mosquito Control Announcement.
Bay County Mosquito Control will utilize one helicopter and two airplanes to apply a naturally occurring granular control material, known as Bti (Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis). Bti is specific to mosquito and black fly larvae, causing quick mortality to both.
If there are any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please contact Bay County Mosquito Control at (989) 894-4555. In addition, more information is available on Bay County Mosquito Control's website at http://www.baycounty-mi.gov/MosquitoControl/Default.aspx
