Mosquito

MARYLAND- Two towns are expected to have aerial spraying done next week to control mosquitos.

The Department of Agriculture says a plane will fly 300 to 500 feet above the ground in Whaleyville and Willards on August 21st in the evening hours, weather permitting.

About 6,000 acres will be treated. Officials say neighbors, pets, or livestock do not need to leave during the spray.
