Mosquito Control in Clay County

Mosquitoes can carry diseases such as West Nile virus, dengue, and Zika. These diseases can affect people, pets, livestock, and wildlife. Clay County works year-round to reduce mosquito populations and protect public health through an integrated mosquito management program.

How We Control Mosquitoes

Clay County's mosquito control services are provided by Vector Disease Control International (VDCI) and are available throughout the county.

Our mosquito control program includes:

• Monitoring mosquito populations throughout Clay County.
• Testing mosquitoes for mosquito-borne diseases.
• Identifying and treating mosquito breeding areas.
• Applying treatments to control mosquito larvae and adult mosquitoes.
• Providing public education on mosquito prevention.

Are Mosquito Sprays Safe for Bees?

Yes. Mosquito control products are applied by trained professionals using EPA-approved products and application methods. Treatments are typically performed during the evening and nighttime hours when bees are safely inside their hives, helping minimize impacts on pollinators while protecting public health.
