Mosquito Spraying Planned Tonight Off Nine Mile, Ten Mile, Hwy 29, University

August 20, 2012

The Escambia County Mosquito Control Division plans to spray in an area along and near Nine Mile Road tonight from 6:30 until 10:00.

Spraying will occur in two areas, bounded by:

  1. Nine Mile Road, Johnson Avenue, Zelda Street, Highway 29
  2. Nine Mile Road, Johnson Avenue, Scenic Highway, University Parkway
  3. Ten Mile Road/Greenbrier Blvd, Nine Mile Road, Latham Street/2nd Avenue, Chemstrand Road

The following information was released by the Escambia County Mosquito Control Division:

Mosquito control administration and operations teams have directed surveillance activity, identified target mosquito species and determined that today’s justified actions are warranted. Methods used to determine necessary fogging mission activity include dry ice-baited light traps, landing rate counts and receiving focally located service requests from the public.

Fogging mission hours vary by start and conclusion times, but generally adult mosquito pesticides are applied in the early evening hours. We ask residents to keep travel in these areas to a minimum during spray times.

For additional information or to request service, please contact the Mosquito Control Division during normal business hours at 937-2188.
