The operation will be conducted in cooperation with the State Mosquito Commission and the NJ Office of Mosquito Control Coordination. We will be using the product VectoPrime FG, EPA Registration #73049-501. We will be treating mosquito habitat of the water-borne stage of mosquito (larvae) before they become flying adults. This application will not impact flying adult mosquitoes.
