City of Great Bend Expands Mosquito Spraying Schedule
The City of Great Bend has added three more dates to its mosquito spraying schedule for this month, as announced on Tuesday, August 23.
The streets department will conduct the spraying between 8 p.m. and midnight. Residents are advised to wait 30 minutes to an hour before going outside after fogging is completed in their area to minimize the risk of inhaling chemicals.
Two vehicles, each containing different chemicals, will be used for spraying. One vehicle will cover the east side of town, while the other will cover the west side, alternating coverage each session.
In the event of heavy rain, the fogging schedule will be adjusted, as spraying is not recommended in wet conditions due to the risk of insecticide washing away. The City will release alternate spraying dates if necessary.
The City of Great Bend will continue to monitor mosquito activity and add further spraying dates if needed.
