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.

I agree they really need to spray the whole county and not just the south portions but we as a whole community need to call and complain about the mosquito infestations here and request they spray our area too. I have called myself once but I guess just 1 person aint gonna cut it!
What about Century? Last time I checked it was in county ..
i was in louisanna last week and they use airplanes to spray for mosquitos, this is a quick way to cover a large area. maybe someone needs to look into this,
These areas do not cover North Escambia completely. Byrneville Road is in the north. The folks up in this area pay taxes also. Please spray our area. We need help with the mosquito problem. North End Resident
