Taking Aim at Mosquitoes Part 2
Taking Aim at Mosquitoes Part 2. I’m Greg Martin with today’s Fruit Grower Report.
Mosquitoes are kind of a fair weather fact of life but while they are annoying they can carry disease for not only livestock but people as well. Outdoor workers in areas where there is standing water can be at risk according to Representative David Taylor from Moxee.
Taylor and a group of legislators sent a letter to the Washington Department of Ecology (DOE) expressing concerns about language in a proposed update to the state’s mosquito control permit. The legislators also called on the department to extend the public comment process on the proposal.
That’s today’s Fruit Grower Report. I’m Greg Martin on the Northwest Ag Information Network.
