Fall River Mosquito Spraying

Positive mosquito testing for Eastern Equine Encephalitis near the Oak Grove Cemetery in Fall River is resulting in spraying Thursday Night from 8 to 11.

According to the Herald News, the positive Triple EEE test, combined with the presence of West Nile virus-infected mosquitoes on several occasions, will result in expanding the north end spray area beyond the cemetery to Robeson Street, Bedford Street, President Avenue, New Boston Road as well as  nearby areas.

As usual the Bristol County Mosquito Control Project, which will conduct the spraying, advises residents in the spraying area to close windows and doors and remain indoors during the three-hour period Thursday Night.
