A message from DNREC-MOSQUITO CONTROL

Weather permitting, the Delaware Mosquito Control Section is planning an insecticide application of Zenivex E4 (Etofenprox) within a zone or zones you have subscribed to within the Delaware Notification Service.  This application will occur during evening hours tonight Wednesday, June 26, 2024, with a truck mounted sprayer to control adult mosquitoes.

All insecticides to be used are registered with the USEPA for mosquito control and will be applied according to USEPA approved label instructions. The USEPA has determined that the insecticides to be used do not pose unreasonable risks to human health, wildlife, or the environment.

For further information, please visit the Mosquito Control Spray Information site or view the Spray Zone Map.
