MORRIS PLAINS — Due to an increase in adult mosquito populations, Morris County officials will conduct targeted spraying in Morris Plains on Monday, August 11, weather permitting.
Between 4:00 a.m. and 6:30 a.m., crews will treat wooded areas and surrounding properties near Jim Fear Drive, including the Community Park Pool. The treatment will be applied using an all-terrain vehicle to help reach dense vegetation where mosquitoes are most active.
Officials will use either Anvil 2+2, containing the active ingredient Sumithrin (EPA Reg. No. 1021-1687-8329), or Zenivex E4, containing the active ingredient Etofenprox (EPA Reg. No. 2724-807).
Residents are advised to keep windows closed during the treatment period and to bring pets indoors. The county’s Pesticide Applicator License Number 20262B will be displayed during operations.
