Mosquito Forecast
For April 20-26, 2024
Treatments for adult mosquitoes were conducted last week along the western side of the county to control floodwater mosquitoes. Elevated river stages on both the Savannah and Ogeechee rivers in that section of the county have provided mosquitoes favorable conditions for larvae. However, both rivers, particularly the Savannah River, appear to be returning to near normal levels. We will continue to monitor mosquito numbers in these areas and retreat areas as needed. Those residents interested in knowing when aerial missions for controlling adult mosquitoes in their area will take place can register on the Smart911 system, please vitsit: https://www.smart911.com/smart911/ref/reg.action?pa=chathamcounty.
