Stuart - Tuesday May 17, 2022: Martin County Mosquito Control will conduct aerial granular larvicide missions on Tuesday, May 17 and Wednesday May 18 to reduce adult mosquito populations.
Aerial larvicide applications will occur between the hours of 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., weather permitting. Mosquito larvicides affect only mosquito larvae and are not harmful to beneficial insects, wildlife, or people.
