Holliston Mosquito Control for July

From the Central Massachusetts Mosquito Control Project:

Holliston, MA - Central Massachusetts Mosquito Control Project personnel will be in your community to investigate residents' complaints about mosquitoes on the following dates in July: July 6, 12, 13, 19, 20, 26, 27.

The above dates are subject to change due to weather conditions, mosquito populations, mosquito virus activity and/or special event spraying. This program will shut down when cool night time temperature becomes predominant in this area. A detailed notice about our spray schedule is posted on the CMMCP phone system after 3:30 p.m. each day, and it is also listed on our website.

Complaints about mosquitoes may be registered by calling the CMMCP office at 508-393-3055 between 7:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. The results of an investigation may warrant the use of a mosquito insecticide to defined, site-specific areas of the town. Such an application may be accomplished using hand or truck mounted equipment, depending on the extent of the application.

Per 333CMR13.04: "No intentional application of pesticides shall be made to private property which has been designated for exclusion from such application by a person living on or legally in control of said property." Notices were sent to all City and Town clerks in January to alert them of the pesticide exclusion process; CMMCP will continue to accept exemptions during the spray season. Residents should contact their Town or City clerk for more information on the exclusion process, or may contact the CMMCP office during business hours, or apply for an exclusion through our website.
