Any of the above dates are tentative, and all dates are subject to change due to weather conditions, mosquito populations, mosquito virus activity and/or special event spraying. This program will shut down when cool night time temperatures become predominant in the area. A detailed notice about our spray schedule is posted on the CMMCP phone system after 3:30 PM each day, and it is also listed on their website: http://www.cmmcp.org click the “2023 Spray Schedule” button on the right.
