The Office of Public Health (OPH), after consulting with the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) and Montgomery Township officials, will be adulticiding (spraying) to control the adult mosquito population in selected areas. The spraying will be done where sampling by the OPH and PADEP has shown mosquitoes that carry the West Nile Virus (WNV). The spray event will occur, weather permitting on Wednesday, September 12, 2018 from approximately 7:45PM to 11:30PM. The alternate date will be Wednesday, September 19, 2018. All areas within the highlighted sections of the attached map will be subjected to the spray. Please see the attached map. Residents within the spray area should consider remaining indoors, closing windows and turning off ventilation systems that draw-in outside air for the duration of the spray plus 30 minutes after.
