Each spring with the rains and warm temperatures , we have the potential to breed mosquitoes . Mosquito eggs need standing water to hatch and grow . Here are some simple tips on how you can reduce breeding sites in your yard:
Empty or get rid of any item that may hold water such as cans , flower pots , trash cans , bird baths , used tires , child’s pool
Clean and make sure your home’s eaves troughs and downspouts drain correctly
Fill and grade low spots in your yard that may hold water
Maintain garden ponds , pools and hot tubs
If you have standing water , you can treat these areas with mosquito dunks . These dunks are placed in standing water to kill the larvae and prevent the mosquitoes from maturing to feeding adults . These dunks are available to city residents at the Department of Public Service Division 7:00 a . m . – 3:30 p . m . Monday through Friday . Please call ahead to schedule a pick up time: 419 - 872 - 8020 .
Weather permitting , city crews will start spraying for mosquito control on a regular basis May through October . Spraying commences after sundown and is dependent on weather . No spraying will be done if raining or winds are above 10 mph .
