Adulticiding – Communities will be visited based on the Adult Mosquito Surveillance / Spraying Schedule if mosquito complaints have been reported in the area .  A surveillance crew member will either place a portable light trap overnight or do a landing count in complaint areas. If the number of female mosquitoes does not exceed the action threshold (3 female mosquitos in a 2 minute count, 10 female mosquitos per night in an unbaited light trap or 24 female mosquitos per night in a baited light trap), spraying will not be done.  

When spraying is needed, it is done weekly according to the Mosquito Spraying Schedule.Learn more about the program at www.cityofbowie.org/mosquitoes.
