Central Massachusetts Mosquito Control Project personnel will be in Milford to spray for mosquitos on Aug. 12, 19 and 26. All dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions, mosquito populations, mosquito virus activity and/or special event spraying. This program will shut down when cool night time terperatures become predominant in the area. A detailed notice about the spray scheule is posted at http://www.cmmcp.org, under “2024 Spray Schedule.” 

Requests for service may be recorded by calling the CMMCP office at 508-393-3055 between 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, or logging onto https://www.cmmcp.org/. Results of these requests may initiate an application of mosquito insecticides to defined, site-specific areas of town. Such an application may be accomplished by using truck-mounted equipment depending on the extent of the application.
