Mosquito Spraying If you
live in Muskingum County and would like to request spraying for your
neighborhood: We do not
have the staff to answer these calls personally; however, calls are retrieved
daily to set larviciding and adulticiding
schedules. For information, call Public Health Sanitarian Adam Dickerson at 454-9741. We spray mosquito problem areas with larvicide and adulticide every
summer to control the population of disease spreading mosquitoes. Larvicides can be used to control
mosquitoes in the aquatic stage before they become biting adults. This type of
control using insecticides generally is the most effective at controlling
mosquitoes and has the least effect on non-target species and the environment. Adulticides can be used to kill adult
mosquitoes that may be infected with West Nile Virus. Two truck-mounted Ultra
Low Volume (ULV) foggers apply the adulticides used
by the Health Department. These units are able to discharge a small amount of adulticide over a large area. The Health Department sprays
during late evening and dark when adult mosquitoes are most active.
Unfortunately, we cannot spray when it is raining. Muskingum County residents called the Health Department
with 23 mosquito complaints in the summer of 2007. 2009 ZMCHD Mosquito Control Activities – New! 2009 Larvicide & Adulticide Spraying Schedules Date General
