BREAKING: Carson City Health and Human Services (CCHHS) has just announced an urgent mosquito abatement treatment scheduled for Wednesday, July 23, 2025. This critical operation will take place in several local areas, including Anderson/Buzzy Ranch, River View Park, and the Linear Ditch, as well as ponds located east of I-580.
The treatments will commence in the morning and will involve the use of a helicopter to conduct aerial treatments targeting standing water areas, a key breeding ground for mosquitoes. CCHHS emphasizes that these efforts are essential to control the mosquito population and significantly reduce the risk of mosquito-borne diseases.
In light of this operation, officials urge residents to take immediate preventive measures. CCHHS recommends using insect repellent, eliminating any standing water around homes, and ensuring that window and door screens are intact. These actions are vital for personal safety and community health.
Residents are encouraged to remain vigilant and proactive as the treatments are set to begin. CCHHS is committed to keeping the community informed and safe from potential health risks associated with heightened mosquito activity.
