Mosquito Control

by on Oct.08, 2020, under Association News

During the Neighborhood Night Out (NNO) in Lakewood this week, the concern about mosquitos was raised.

The key way to reduce mosquitos around your property is for you and your neighbors to find and empty all standing water where they breed.

This message is from Kevin G. Troller, Baytown Assistant City Manager about City spraying:

“Lakewood has been sprayed 32 times this year, which is more than any other zone in the City which is typical with their proximity to the bay.  Attached are graphs of the last three spray missions which show Lakewood in general and the 200 block of Post Oak where I heard the concern during NNO.  The graphs show, as we have all our vehicles chipped, that the last 3 spray dates/times are September 29 th at 9:12pm; October 2 at 8:42pm; and October 5 at 8:39pm.  Also, knowing Lakewood’s proximity to the Baytown Nature Center, know we both spray and larvicide there.  The problem this year has been the numerous tropical storms and the high tides caused by them.  I’ll include a link to an article that might be helpful as well. Lastly, please call our Health Department main line as we log all calls, and we do respond to areas where heightened concerns are raised.  That number is: (281) 420-5384.  I hope this information is helpful to you.  We really appreciate the dialogue we’re able to have with our citizens during NNO.  Sincerely,  Kevin”
