JEFFERSON TOWNSHIP—The Morris County Mosquito Commission has announced that it will conduct mosquito control spraying in Jefferson Township on Wednesday, May 28, from 4:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m., weather permitting.
Crews will treat a section of woods and surrounding properties along Weldon Road using an all-terrain vehicle (ATV) as part of ongoing efforts to control the mosquito population and reduce the risk of mosquito-borne illnesses.
The commission will be applying either Anvil 2+2 (active ingredient Sumithrin, EPA#1021-1687-8329) or Zenivex E4 (active ingredient Etofenprox, EPA#2724-807), both of which are approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Residents are advised to stay indoors during the application period, keep windows closed, and bring pets and outdoor items inside as a precaution.
