About the event
Mosquito Spray Schedule
North Brentwood will be sprayed with mosquito repellent on August 23 and September 13
The primary goal of the Maryland Department of Agriculture’s (MDA) Mosquito Control Program is to prevent mosquito-borne diseases in humans, pets and domestic livestock.
Different types of mosquitoes can carry and transmit different diseases; the methods for combating one species can differ from how the department combats another. While not all mosquitoes carry diseases, the MDA suggests residents take precautions to minimize exposure to mosquito bites.
These measures include:
· Wear long, loose-fitting, light-colored clothing.
· Wear insect repellents according to product labels.
· Avoid mosquito-infested areas during prime periods of activity (between dusk and dawn).
· Install, inspect and repair window and door screens in homes and stables
· Regularly clean pets’ outdoor food and water bowls.
