MORRIS COUNTY — The Morris County Mosquito Commission has scheduled mosquito control treatments for Thursday, June 18, in response to an increase in adult mosquito populations in several areas of the county.

East Hanover: Ridgedale Avenue near the athletic field
Hanover Township: South Jefferson Road near the Central Park skate rink
According to the commission, applicators may use Anvil 2+2, which contains the active ingredient sumithrin, or Zenivex E4, which contains the active ingredient etofenprox.
