In accordance with 333 CMR 13.04(7) (a & b), please consider this as notification of the potential spring (and summer if conditions warrant) aerial applications targeting mosquito larvae in the larger wetlands of the District.
The Norfolk County Mosquito Control District will potentially be conducting helicopter applications of biorational larvicides to control mosquito larvae, should conditions warrant. Go to the Districts website for targeted spring wetland locations. The summer wetland locations will be posted before any application should it be warranted. These potential applications will be conducted over specific large wetlands in the Towns of:
Avon/Bellingham/Braintree/Canton/Dedham/Dover/Foxboro/Franklin
Holbrook/Medfield/Medway/Millis/Milton/Needham/Norfolk/Norwood
Plainville/Quincy/Randolph/Sharon/Stoughton/Walpole/Westwood
Weymouth/Wrentham
These applications will be conducted over a likely 2 to 4-day window, lasting only 2 days, anytime between April 18, 2024, and April 30, 2024. As always, the weather in the spring is unpredictable. For this reason, the District cannot pin down actual application dates with any more accuracy at this time.
