Response:
Yes, mosquito aerial spraying is scheduled for August 4-6, 2015, from 6 to 8 p.m., weather permitting. Spraying areas include Langley AFB, Craney Island, the Portsmouth Coast Guard Station, and sections of Portsmouth adjacent to the military bases. A specially designed C-130 Hercules will be flying between 150 and 200 feet over the areas and spray Trumpet Concentrate. The spray is not harmful to people or animals; however, anyone with known allergies to insecticides should stay indoors during spraying hours.
