Fogging Schedule

Schedule for the week of July 26, 2010:

Weather continues to be a challenge for fogging to control the adult mosquitoes. If it's too windy or the air temperature is below 50 F, the District won't fog because the mosquitoes won't be active then. As always, please remove any standing water around your home (or change it every other day) and use a CDC-approved insect repellent on exposed skin when outdoors between dusk and dawn.

Please Note:

Providence has been put on the regular fogging schedule and will be fogged on Thursday evenings beginning this week. Mosquito numbers and calls reporting mosquito problems have increased these last few weeks to where regular abatement (evening fogging) for the adults is needed.

  • Monday: Petersboro, West Smithfield, Benson, Lewiston
  • Tuesday: Newton, Cache Junction, Clarkston, Hyrum, Avon, Mendon
  • Wednesday: Wellsville (north), Benson, Nibley, Millville
  • Thursday: Richmond, Cove, Amalga, Trenton, Cornish, Wellsville (south), Mt. Sterling, Providence

East Smithfield, Hyde Park, and North Logan will be fogged only when adult mosquito numbers are high or residents request fogging. Please call (435) 764-6839 to request service. All areas are being treated with larvacide; mosquito traps are monitoring adult numbers.

Surveillance and abatement began May 3rd with field workers checking bodies of water for the presence of mosquito larvae. Workers are finding larva throughout the District and have begun treatment with larvacides. Larvacide is the most effective way to control mosquitoes by killing them before they mature and become airborne.

The fogging schedule is tentative and may change to accommodate holidays and/or weather. If the air temperature is below 50 F, or if it is raining or windy, fogging will not occur that night. The mosquitoes are not flying under those weather conditions, so there's no reason to fog then.

Courtesy No-Spray Requests

When possible, the District will try to honor courtesy no-spray requests. Please submit a request in writing (by April 15 of each year or as soon as possible) in order for us to plan routes and accomodate no spray requests. Click here to read this policy and obtain the form to complete and submit to CMAD. The request must be submitted EACH year.

The District is divided into areas generally identified by the community each is around; these names are what appear in the fogging schedule.
