The Orange County Mosquito and Vector Control District (OCMVCD) announced that it will be conducting residential mosquito control applications via truck in Santa Ana. The treatment area will be located in a neighborhood at the cross streets of E. Edinger and S. Bristol. The applications are taking place to reduce the number of mosquitoes and the risk of mosquito-borne disease in the community.
OCMVCD will continue to conduct surveillance in this area in the coming weeks and additional treatments may be scheduled based on surveillance data. Residents that are in the treatment area will be notified via door hanger.
Santa Ana residents can check if they reside in the treatment area by entering their address into the interactive map: https://bit.ly/NeighborhoodMosquitoControl.
