The McKean County Mosquito Control Program will conduct a truck-mounted ultra-low volume (ULV) mosquito control operation in Annin, Keating and Eldred townships and Eldred Borough.
Residential and recreational areas in the township and borough will be sprayed for adult mosquitoes. The control work will take place late this evening through Thursday, weather permitting. Surveillance has detected high populations of adult nuisance mosquitoes in these areas.
The truck-mounted ULV spray will be conducted by McKean Environmental Solutions LLC in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. The business license is 13152. 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. Weather conditions, surveillance data and other unexpected events could delay or cancel the work, in which case it will be rescheduled for Monday.
