The Sacramento-Yolo Mosquito and Vector Control District plans to treat the agricultural area west of East Levee Road between Elverta Road and Elkhorn Blvd (Grandpark) for adult mosquitoes that may carry the potentially fatal West Nile virus.
Visit the Vector Control Spraying Update page for a complete list of scheduled treatments. For additional treatment questions and answers, please see the Spraying Frequently Asked Questions. Agricultural aerial treatments may be canceled if weather conditions or other issues prohibit scheduled treatment.
As part of the District’s Integrated Pest Management program and Mosquito-Borne Disease Management Plan, the District will administer Ultra Low Volume (ULV) treatments by using ground and/or aerial equipment in and around areas where mosquito counts and virus activity have met treatment criteria.
The district’s products are designed to quickly reduce adult mosquito populations and protect public health and welfare. All products are registered and evaluated by the California Environmental Protection Agency.
If an individual wants to take additional action to reduce exposure, the following steps may be taken:
- Remain indoors during applications in your immediate area.
- Consult your doctor if you have special health conditions or concerns.
