Tentative Spray Map for MONDAY, AUGUST 26, 2019 - Please visit: https://massnrc.org/spray-map/middlesex-worcester.htm
MDAR will conduct and monitor aerial spraying in these specific areas of Worcester and Middlesex Counties anticipated to begin on Monday, August 26, 2019 and continue over several nights. However, the ability to spray is weather-dependent and the schedule may change. Officials will continue to monitor the area over the next two weeks to evaluate whether a second round of spraying may be required to achieve maximal effectiveness, however, temperatures may limit a second spraying.
Residents are encouraged to visit the DPH website at www.mass.gov/guides/aerial-mosquito-control-summer-2019 for the latest updates on spraying in their communities. We will update you when more information is available.
