Sarasota County Gears Up for Mosquito Season

Sarasota County Mosquito Management is preparing for the upcoming mosquito season, emphasizing the importance of proactive measures to control mosquito populations. With the rapid reproductive cycle of mosquitoes and the increased risk of mosquito-borne illnesses, residents are urged to eliminate standing water sources and take precautions such as wearing repellent and long clothing. The management team is utilizing innovative methods like drone spraying and chicken surveillance to manage mosquito populations, but collective effort from the public is essential to minimize the threat.
