The Town of Whitestown will be postponing its scheduled mosquito fogging operations for Thursday night at Main Street Park and will instead implement an alternative mosquito spray approach, in response to public outreach.The Town has been in communication with the Indiana State Chemist and the chemical used in fogging “Mosquitomist One U.L.V”, is approved and recommended by the state. The feedback we have received underscored a strong preference for more targeted mosquito control methods.
“Listening to the feedback of the residents is paramount to us,” said Katie Barr, Town Manager. “Based on the feedback we’ve received; we believe that transitioning to a direct grass spray approach aligns more closely with the preferences and priorities of our residents.”
The Town will be ordering a spray that the Indiana State Chemist recommended as an alternative. We appreciate the community’s engagement and understanding as we work to implement this alternative solution.
