Residential and recreational areas in the township and borough will be sprayed for adult mosquitoes beginning late evening today through Thursday, weather permitting.
High populations of adult nuisance mosquitoes have been detected in the areas through surveillance efforts.

The product used will be Biomist 3+15 applied at a rate of 0.75 oz/ac. This product is designed to provide quick knockdown and effective control of adult mosquitoes.
