Get involved. Knowing whom to call about mosquito control is important if you want to protect yourself, your family and your community from West Nile virus.
Your public health officials are put in place to serve you, and one of their primary purposes is to protect you and your family. Let them know what you’ve learned about controlling mosquito larvae. Ask them to use larviciding as their first line of defense for control of mosquito larvae before they become biting, adult disease-carriers, which can not only be a nuisance but also a threat to your health and the health of your family.
