To answer many of the concerns about the mosquito invasion of RP that started last Sunday, we are going to see these biting insects for the next three to four weeks. The current flood plain mosquitoes will be followed by the salt water marsh mosquitoes and then the culex mosquitoes.
The mosquito fogging done on Wednesday, September 24, appears to have had a major impact on the current crop of insects. The scheduled fogging is Tuesday or Wednesday each week.
Becky Cottingham, director of Montgomery County Precinct 3 Recycling and Reuse Facility, says, "If you have areas where water does not drain, treat it with larvicide to keep larvae from maturing and keep the population down."
Precinct Commissioner Craig Doyal has five crews working on clean up in our district, two of those crews are in RP, working in the front and back towards the middle. They will back for a second round to clean up what is left - no timetable.
