If numbers persist or disease is present, treatments may continue throughout the biting season.

According to the district, at the application rate the product will not harm:

— people or pets, even if present during the application;

— fruit trees, vegetable gardens, or fishponds; and

— bees, as the product is applied at a time when bees are not active.

There is no need to turn off air conditioning systems during the application, the district said.
