The Orange County Mosquito and Vector Control District (OCMVCD) will be conducting residential mosquito control applications via truck in the City of Santa Ana. The treatment area will be located in a neighborhood at the cross streets of Fairview and Warner.

The applications are taking place to reduce the number of mosquitoes and the risk of mosquito-borne disease in the community.
