With the increased number of mosquitoes in recent days, the City of Moorhead will be spraying citywide to control mosquitoes on the following date (weather permitting, less than 10 MPH wind and at least 58 degrees).  If weather prohibits, spraying may be done the following days.

Wednesday Evening, July 21 and

Thursday Evening, July 22

All spraying in Moorhead will begin at approximately 8:00 p.m. and should be completed by 12:00 a.m.  The spray being used has very little toxicity to people, pets, birds, and other animals.  It is however very toxic to mosquitoes.

As a general precaution we recommend that you do not walk through the spray cloud as the wind moves it through your block.  Please do not let children follow the spray machines.  The spray will not harm paint surfaces for either vehicles or houses.

If you have questions concerning the spray program, or wish to have spray machine turned off as it passes your home, please call 299-5422.  Leave a detailed message and your call will be returned.
