🦟 MOSQUITO CONTROL: HELPFUL INFORMATION 🦟

Putnam County is working to help protect residents from mosquitoes and mosquito-borne diseases. Here are a few things to know about the County's mosquito control efforts.

🚜 When Does Spraying Occur?

The County's mosquito control contractor, VDCI, conducts Ultra-Low Volume (ULV) spraying in areas that meet the State's requirements for justified spraying.

Please keep in mind:

Spraying is not routinely conducted on private property or non-County-maintained roads.

Spraying cannot take place during rain.

Wind speeds must be 10 MPH or less.

Temperatures must be at least 60 degrees.

📋 How Are Spraying Areas Verified?

Mosquito complaints alone are no longer enough to justify spraying. State requirements call for at least one additional verification method:

Mosquito Trap Counts: Traps are set overnight to count mosquitoes and identify species. This process takes at least 12 hours.

Landing Rate Counts: A certified technician observes and records mosquito landing rates.

Positive Sentinel Chicken: Blood samples from sentinel chickens are tested by a State laboratory.

🐝 Special Property Considerations

Beekeepers, organic groves and fish hatcheries that wish to restrict spraying must be registered with the State and contact Mosquito Control.

Have questions or concerns?

Call Putnam County Mosquito Control at 386-329-0397.

Working together helps keep mosquitoes and the diseases they carry under control!

We are planning a Youth Holiday Baking camp that will serve 2 purposes. 1) It will be a 2 day camp to teach youth about cooking and Thanksgiving holiday traditions. 2) We will be donating some of the prepared items to the Ronald McDonald House in Gainesville to help fill their Sweet Room for the Thanksgiving holiday. We have created an Amazon wish list with some of the nonperishable items needed to help cut down on the expenses for youth participants. We will be following up with our perishable list soon but wanted to get the start of the list out in case anyone is interested in assisting by donating supplies. Link for the Amazon wish list https://a.co/05fRB26d More information coming next week on how to register or volunteer for this baking camp.
