ANNAPOLIS, MD – The Maryland Department of Agriculture, in cooperation with the Prince George's County Health Department, will expand mosquito control services in parts of Bowie on Sunday evening due to a public health concern over the potential for mosquito-borne diseases.
Ultra-Low Volume (ULV) truck-based spraying to control adult mosquitoes is planned for the evening of Sunday, Sept. 20, within a three-fourth mile radius of the intersection of Old Annapolis Road and Spring Meadows Drive.
Spraying will occur after 7:30 p.m. In the event of inclement weather, spraying will be rescheduled for the next available evening. Any existing spray exemptions in the area will be temporarily suspended.
Mosquito Control personnel will use a permethrin-based solution that the EPA has approved for use in public health mosquito control programs without posing unreasonable risks to human health. However, out of an abundance of caution, the department recommends avoiding outdoor activities during spraying.
