The Santa Clara County Vector Control District has confirmed the presence of West Nile virus-positive mosquitoes in a small area that includes Sunnyvale and Santa Clara, so weather permitting, those areas will be treated to reduce adult mosquito populations.
The treatment will be carried out using truck-mounted equipment on Thursday, August 3, starting around 10:00 p.m. and lasting approximately 4 hours. The affected cigo numbers will be: 94085, 94086, 94087 and 95051.
Authorities have stated that there is no need to change locations during treatment, as these pose minimal risk to people, pets, animals and the environment when applied by an authorized vector control professional following label instructions.
