ANNAPOLIS, MD (September 19, 2023) ~ The Maryland Department of Agriculture (MDA) and the Prince George's County Health Department have announced plans to expand mosquito control services in areas due to a public health concern over the potential for mosquito-borne diseases. Ultra-Low Volume (ULV) truck-based spraying is scheduled for Wednesday, September 20, 2023, within a ¾-mile radius of the intersection of Backloop of English Oaks Ave and Bowie.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has approved the use of a permethrin-based solution for public health mosquito control programs without posing unreasonable risks to human health. However, MDA recommends avoiding outdoor activities during spraying. Residents are encouraged to take precautions to minimize their exposure to mosquito bites such as wearing long, loose fitting, light colored clothing and insect repellents according to product labels. Additionally, they should avoid mosquito infested areas during prime periods of activity (between dusk and dawn), install, inspect, and repair window and door screens in homes and stables, regularly clean bird baths and bowls for pet food and water, and remove or empty all water-holding containers.

In the event of inclement weather on September 20th, spraying will be rescheduled for the next available evening. Any existing spray exemptions in the area will be temporarily suspended. All Marylanders are encouraged to follow MDA's Twitter feed @MdAgDept that will post unscheduled spray events and other timely information about mosquito control in Maryland. Routine spray program schedules are available by county on the program's website or by calling MDA's Mosquito Control Program at 410-841-5870.
