Surveillance and Spraying

Our 2021 Mosquito Control Program has come to an end. Due to continued overnight temperatures at or below 60 degrees, the Maryland Department of Agriculture has ended all spraying and trapping for this 2021 season, effective September 24, 2021. This also ends the 2021 Mosquito Control Program for the City of Bowie. Although there may be warmer days and mosquitoes present, the 2021 Mosquito Control Program is complete and the MDA will not be spraying. 

If you have further questions, please contact the Maryland Department of Agriculture’s Mosquito Control Program office directly at 301-422 -5080.
