Mosquito Forecast
For August 6 - August 12, 2022
With July in our rearview mirror, we look towards August and what it may bring. By comparison, the numbers of mosquitoes were actually down in July from June, however, the confirmation of our first mosquito samples infected with West Nile virus has kept us busy. In all, a total of twenty positive samples from five locations have been reported. Treatments for adult mosquitoes were conducted in the areas where these infected mosquitoes were collected and additional missions targeting the southern house mosquito populations will continue. Should you become overwhelmed by mosquitoes or see a potential mosquito problem, please call us directly or report on-line through our website at Chatham County Mosquito Control . If you would like to receive notifications of aerial adult mosquito missions in your area during 2022, please register on the county’s Smart911 system at: https://www.smart911.com/smart911/ref/reg.action?pa=chathamcounty.
