Mosquitos in Upper Merion To Be Sprayed

Montgomery County has announced that it will spray mosquitos in Upper Merion Township this week.

Spraying is scheduled for 8:30 to 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 5, the county said.

Multiple mosquitos with West Nile Virus have been found in the region this summer. Montgomery County said it has worked in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Health Department to spray “where sampling by the Health Department and PADEP has shown mosquitoes that carry the West Nile Virus.”

The spraying will be done by the Montgomery County Health Department using Biomist 3+15 ULV, the county said.

If you have concerns about mosquitos or standing water, you can contact the county at 610- 278-5117.
