Mosquito control spraying to continue
The McKean County Mosquito Control Program will conduct a truck mounted ultra-low volume (ULV) mosquito control operation in Annin, Liberty, Keating and Eldred townships and Eldred Borough.
Residential and recreational areas in the township and borough will be sprayed for adult mosquitoes. The work was scheduled to be held Thursday evening and again Monday, weather permitting. High populations of adult nuisance mosquitoes have been detected in the areas.
The truck mounted ULV spray will be conducted by McKean Environmental Solutions LLC in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. The business license is 13152. The product used will be AquaDuet at a rate of 0.66oz/acre. This product is designed to provide quick knockdown and effective control of adult mosquitoes.
Weather conditions, surveillance data and other unexpected events could delay or cancel the work. If cancelled, it will be rescheduled for Tuesday. Call Heather McKean at (814) 598-3652 with questions or concerns.
