The city says spraying routes are determined after checking mosquito traps. The Vector Control unit will continue checking trap levels to determine where and if other areas need to be sprayed.

The city is encouraging residents to follow all mosquito prevention tools such as:

Wear mosquito repellent containing DEET

Dress in long sleeves and pants

Avoid being outside during times of day when mosquitoes are most active (Dawn and Dusk)

Drain standing water, as it will reduce any mosquito breeding grounds

Consult a doctor if you feel ill after being bitten
